Fantastic work done with the mid-pegs/controls there! 
(...to say nothing of the fantastic work done on the rest of this beautiful custom!)

Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)

Love it.
Those fat front tyres (correct spelling, btw  ) look smart.
Too bad he spent all his money on the bike, he had no cash left for some decent jeans

I knew his rearsets would be popular. We've seen the bonnie tank mod before. Most people roll their own rearsets with the stock controls rather than fitting aftermarket controls like he did.
Don't forget the other side...

Sweet! He calls the Thruxton tank a direct bolt up, from what I've heard here the T-100 tank requires a little tweaking and is a bit shorter. Nick's looks awesome. I love the knee indents on our tanks but would have forgone all the work of smoothibg my tank had I known that would look so good.
