Yeah, your right Lee, the tit is the artist ( I use the term loosely ) .

ART...... is obviously in the eye (or mind) of the "builder" ..... 
I had to park the Big Bird next to this thing at Jenolan Caves, last week.....
It did start life as a '70's 750 Four... What could u say it has ended life as..??????
 
Unfortunately (or fortunately ) I didn't see it leave.....

I guess I was probably trying not to look too hard...  It was a vertical block, so I did think it may have been a 500, but hey, I don't think it made much difference to the overall carnage......
Suppose it was a bit like a car accident.... ya really try not to look, but ya just can't not look....
Over the years with all the talk of different exhausts for the TB, I have often thought about a style like the old 'hot dog' style of the 50's-60's british bikes... BSA Gold Flash for one...
But I think that thought has been smashed now.....
