I've always looked at motorcycles as a form of artistic expression. Some prefer form over function, some are opposite. I don't like every motorcycle I see, I love mine but not everyone will. That's okay. I appreciate the time, effort, and skill that goes into each machine. Every one has a story and a person that spent countless hours putting it together for wherever reason. It's deeper than just the machine.

I'd love to have seen this in person.

I agree that some of them are over the top. But I really dug this one.
