Let's go Digger - Pink Taco build photos



These build pics of the "Pink Taco' are the Pelicans Pants. You can see a few custom builders at the Yokohama Show starting to take on this early Arlen Ness Digger style as well, and it's far freakier than the choppers and bobbers out there -Check it out, and lots of other diggers as well.

Dell-Sara custom shop






Japanese custom shops that specialize in Yamaha SR's are about as rare as pencils, but this one has some interesting hop-ups, and a clean style that I like. Here's the link to their site: http://www.dell-sara1995.com/menu.html

CCM and the classic British scrambler




CCM was one of those small custom bike builers in England that faded away until resurrected in 2004. They have several new models, all with that distinctive chrome tank and classic British style. The motor is from the Suzuki DRZ400.
Thanks to Raptors and Rockets for the info.

A couple of smaller cc dragster style bikes - the small tanks look good, and it's great to see a bit of 'coffin tank' style creeping in as well -
