That's a lot like the custom bike I had in mind ifn I ever did one more build before I die. Pretty nice.

I think the motor looks small in comparison to the rest of the bike.
But I DO like the motor!

That bike has either got some extra batteries hidden somewhere, or an after-market charging system or those extra lights are just for show. I have a '71 650 Triumph myself and I know for a fact, Mr Lucas and his electrics definitely won't run all those lights and an ignition as well. I'm erring of the side of "don't like it" simply because a nice handling machine has been glimmed up to be nothing more than a straight line show pony. Lots of work has obviously gone into it but saying that, I wonder just what the builder was thinking with his design?

Looks to me like he really liked his Harley WA, but got tired of fixing it and trying to keep up, so he decided to put in a good engine.
