I like that, apart from the exhaust.

I like it except the back end also. The number plate mounting looks far too French. [retches uncontrollably]

I really like it. I'd have a slightly larger headlamp with a steel mesh on it and I'd have a black exhaust

Lovely job, prefer a normal silencer as well though.

A longer rear mudguard and I'd be all over it.

If that was in gloss black, it'd be superb but those Gulf colours spoil it for me. Overall I really like it, nice old skool shed build look to it and I like the stubby back end.
