Sydney? Whats that.
Hmmmm i just checked out the video and the only decent thing in the while waste of time view was the old KX leaning against the truck, and my god, I had to smash a tooth out with a truck to get a gap like his, and his looks stock.

Coincidence I went to deus ex machina on parramatta rd on sunday to have a quick geezer. Might have to organise a KSRC coffee there
Saw a few kwaka 650's and 800's in the mix. There's an awesome old racing Ducati in the Cafe.
I'm really only interested in these kind of resurrections if I was to do it - for the pleasure of creating it and then being able to enjoy the results from hard work.
Looking forward to more of your build Adrian

Missed the point.
The seppo made some valid points about the next generation losing touch - they dont look for a 12mm spanner they look for a USB port. Also he has a workshop that I aspire to. The vid was made by ETSY that are a collectors and enthusiast production house that cover everything from flower arranging to geology specimen collections. Some artistic footage was obviously part of it.
Much Much Go is talent and vision. I Like what Deus create but the price is exorbitant. This bike and the footage has nothing to do with Deus Ex Machins in sydeny.Lots of credit to the creator that is either based in Broady or Corio. To understand the graphics and the finish then you need to understand the rocker style. Its an acquired taste and can seem a bit pretentious in harking back to an era of Rockers and Mods - well before my time. I like it so get fucked.
Every day that goes past I become less interested in modern machinery and appreciate more of the older stuff. I dont even pretend to know all about it but I sure do love it.

id kill for a nice sr400 racer, deus do charge shitloads and lots of people hate em for that...
but in terms of pieces of sculpture or design, i think they're the dogs bollocks... some are achingly beautiful to look at
id also kill to have the skills to make one on my own. i can appreciate the artistry of bike builders like both of the above

I don't think I missed the point at all , and I agree with the seppo ,(read my post)
The seppo tho has fallen into the mire that he is at lenghts to explain is missing from our " youngergeneration " and allowed some hand made film to use him to dramatic effect , ie , the demolition size gas axe . No reason for trottting it out other than , oooAh bling factor , that is part of the reason the next generation go back to their computer to try and work out what the fuck that bloke is doing !
