    Custom? Definitely hard to classify.

    Hope this hasn't been posted before. Cafe racers, customs, whatever, usually start with some motorcycle parts. This has an airplane engine and very few normal motorcycle parts that I can see.

    Bend swinging might pose a problem. It wouldn't be my choice for a quick trip over the Gentle Annie.
