My current Steal Your Face derby is this one: https://www.custom-engraving-ltd.com...e-black-chrome. Also have a timer cover from them.

The one I had that was made by the late great Bob Epstein was a gorgeous piece of art which wont fit the newer primaries, so now its just a nice piece of wall art in my man cave. (2nd pic is when it was on my Heritage years ago)

That's pretty cool. The first one at a distance on the side stand gives a 3d hollow effect illusion.

The derby cover is really cool and looks sharp as well. I think it totally takes you eye off the bike and draws you to the cover however. I checked their website out and they do some very nice work.

Great quality of work... I just sent them a pic of what I wanted, and they sent me a proto cover... liked and had it done. Took about a 10 days for the whole process.

When it's on the kickstand, it's not that noticeable... I'm sure it gets a look or five as I'm riding by... and I totally understand why your crushing on the bike.

I can clearly see mine is custom. Clearly... Omaha, those are incredible! You make those? CNC, cast?

The more I look at it the more I like it. Got to love those red heads! You got the green color right. That matches well.
