If you have acreage and room for a little flat track, this could be a lot of fun. :vroom:

That's pretty cool!

I like Flat Track & Street Tracker bikes.

What pipes are those? I have a project that could use a RH exit set of pipes.

Looks Like an interpretation of the Moto Carrera Del Mar.

yup. certainly not one of a kind,t hose were done ad nauseam for a while. actually what turned me off to trackers. totally overdone style IMHO.... But, that does seem like a good deal , def expect a full rebuild.

I tried the "tracker" look many years ago.  I could never get the seat fit and look quite right, although my fab skills are low..

I think it's a great look and suites these bikes well.

I'm not a big fan of the decorative number plates some builds have. It would make more sense to me if someone wanted to display their actual number on the build. But to each their own.

That's a good looking bike!

Removing the front fender, or replacing it with one that has been shortened & blacked out, might provide more of a Flat Track vibe.
