The picture above gives us a better look at his radical, yet comfy looking custom seat. That's outstanding, but notice the powerful effect he got by simply painting the motor and primary black instead of the olive drab of the rest of the motorcycle. The result doesn't depart from the uniform appearance of the Military. In fact, it goes it one better by introducing a real vintage touch.Vell then returns to cool by adding the low mounted carrier for his pocket PC. (WRONG! I'm now told the silver box alongside the horn in the photo above is an electronic toll device, required in Singapore. See comments below).
Great build. Great article.
ReplyDeleteI dont understand what you meant by 'low mounted carrier for his pocket.' Am I missing something?
*pocket pc
ReplyDeleteI was afraid it might be hard to see. And I might even be wrong about what it is. But if you look at the top picture, just behind the front wheel near the horn we see a shiny, rectangular box. I assume it is a holster for a phone or Blackberry type device. Vell, correct me if I am wrong.
ReplyDeleteDavid you are mistaken. That box is some sort of Electronic toll collection devise that is required in singapore for all major roads. I can not remember the exact name of it.
ReplyDeleteTHANK YOU! I have corrected the error.
ReplyDeleteHow can I get the custom swing arm?
ReplyDeleteNice work. Try placing the classic seat and also change the rear fender to a flat one. Am sure it ll do better
ReplyDeleteVery nice bike, the modifications are quite simple but amazingly efficient ! Any news about Vell since 2009 ?
