Man, this thing will forever remain a design highwater mark for all the right reasons, sheer simplicity and cleanliness of lines and form being primary among them. This 'K' model from the sizeable mind of the head Salinas Boy is as stunning now as it was when it first appeared coming on for a decade ago, an ode to less is more there is nothing on this ride that is out of place, separate component parts form a seamless and cohesive whole, wheels, front end, 'bars, frame, motor, pipes, oil tank, guard all become one sexy, purposeful, perfect machine. I know the Blue Bike is one that so many rave up, and I love that too, but tip this into my breakfast bowl and I'd be right for life.
REAL COOL SHIT - REAL BIKES, REAL CARS, REAL TUNES . . . . AND A LI'L BIT OF REAL VITRIOLIC RANTING . . . . AND A WHOLE BUNCH OF OTHER COOL STUFF THAT GIVES ME THE HORN . . . . unless otherwise stated, all words, blurbs and drivel herein are entirely mine. I hope you dig it. All my personal photos can be enlarged by clicking on the image.
