You can't appreciate how magnificent this bike is until you see all the components and then sit on it and feel how crazy light it is! I don't think I will be able to sleep until I can ride it.
More to come on crotchrocket.tv as soon as I get home. (Message edited by Rodrob on September 30, 2011) |

Rob - congrats! Very cool to get a pic w/ Erik and your new bike (?)! Plans? See your vids from the track day mishap. Race trim shortly or street, both? Lucky you, i'm jealous but probably more bike than i could handle, and definitely afford!! |

Sweet, indeed! Congrats on the new bike and good luck at the race track with Shawn. Make sure you get some seat time, too! (I'm sure that comment wasn't necessary!) I'm sure you'll love it! |

I do not know where my bike stands in the lineup, only that it is #35. There were other bikes built and in various stages. I can tell you that these are truly hand built pieces of post industrial art. Kinetic sculptures if I may. Even the headlight mount is hand made carbon fiber. How often can you say that a radiator is gorgeous? I do not know how or why I am on this journey. Right know, I don't care.
(Message edited by Rodrob on October 01, 2011) If there is interest, I might ride it to the Pro-Italia event on Oct. 9th. (Message edited by Rodrob on October 01, 2011) |

See you at Pro-Italia! And ... did you see anything else being built at E B R? Other than 1190RS, that is? Or were you given the flashlight pen treatment before you left the E B R shop (MIB reference). If you were, you would not remember anyway
