It's a nice looking bike, a few interesting things here and there, way overpriced IMHO though.

very interesting and good looking overall, but what's up with the cable over hydraulic front brake? i re-read what he posted about it, but still don't understand besides aesthetically why anyone would think that's a better way to use the front brake than to just mount the master on the handlebar...

Well, the value of anything is the price someone is willing to pay. Nice looking build, all in all.

Lots of nice touches on that one - nice job. Hope he can get a fair price for it.

Cable over Hydraulic: No Visible Master Cylinder ( although you still have to look at the reservoir ) Had it on my 1978 KZ1000 Z1R. MC hid behind the headlight.

quick google search showed the builder did take second at the AMD competition but not with this bike.

But It did win a few other awards, and there are a few more pics here.

Looking through the pic you can see he mounted a rear brake master cylinder on the left fork where the second caliper would be.
