Perfect! But you need to level off those bars. I hate the "curl up" look. But seriously, really nice job, especially going the extra mile for the Dugast skins.

Boy, does that remind me of the Frejus that spent 6 months in front of one of the LBS's a few years back (the one that ultimately had its FB hubs dumped into my lap).

What can I say? Gorgeous machine - simply stunning. I can also feel a sentimentality towards it too

Otis, they are level, just a trick of the camera. seat is level to, but that white beam throws off my eye, to the point where I had to go back and look at the bike again!

Thanks for the compliments.

I'm getting there . This one sure is pretty. I got a few more goodies coming in the mail and a couple more contacts in Italy looking for my grail (no French soldiers telling me, "Your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries.")

Gorgeous machina!

Have you had a chance to take it south to Hellyer yet?
Those Dugast tubualrs are begging to spin up onto the banking.
