    Paint bucket for the headlight shell wins the rat-award. Previous to this was the bike that had a plastic bag held on with a rubber band over the headlight shell. In San Francisco there used to be a yearly rat bike show, with awards, but I don't know if it exists anymore

    I was wondering about that too.

    The custom side covers for a low seat are kind of funky too.....

    Ironic coming from you. You've posted the most creative, outside the box Ks and 3 holes have thrown you..........:hmmmmm

    My guess he was just testing a new hole drill set he got as a gift....shame he didn't line those holes up before drilling. Part of the creativity I suspect.:huh

    This eBay K is in my the hood. Must resist though. Duck has sent a few my way but
    ...can't do it. Larry is hopefully enjoying some quality time with family and getting back to it. Not sure what the final touches might be, but sure thing .....I won't have anything to worry about. Should be a typical SpecialK...Over the Top.
