Interesting shock mounting tech.

When you have spent top dollar on quality Chinese shocks like those it might be hard to afford nuts for the actual shock mounts.
The seat is quite styling as well

It matches the Evel Knievel/Prince-themed gas tank

I didn't catch it at first!  Must have purchased too long of a chinese shock.  Man bikes are expensive in the UK.  $500 here....

Looks like it was a junkyard build. $3k?

What rear wheel is that? 16"... Looks like it fits pretty well with that tire. But is that even a good idea?

I've got some Z bars to go with it!

I do not understand how anyone can look at an RD 350 and see a cruiser or chopper. A KZ LTD maybe but an RD?
