Beautiful bike, I would have voted for it to win! I can see the quality of your work and the nice lines. I really like your mufflers, seat, paint, headlight, front calipers and front fender... Etc. Etc.
Have lots of bikes... need one more.

Tough show to pull down a placing. Excellent news to pull a second with so much competition. Very cool.

Do you call it no quarter because you give it no rest when it comes to making it better?

I have decided to tear my bike down and paint and rebuild everything!

Is that giving it no quarter? :)
