Little too ugly for my taste anyway

Sure would....would make a few changes to make it look better but good starting point. Looks like the old b/gas bikes back when Mike Bruso was running pro-stock and b/gas.

A wire wheel on the front would go a long ways towards making it look better

Yep...a wire wheel up front and a different header and it would make a huge difference. Never been a fan of those solid(ish) front wheels. Wouldn't take much to make this thing really stand out amid a sea of streetbikes and streetbike inspired-dragbikes. One of these shows up occasionally at a nearby track and it is refreshing to see an actual dragbike out there...

Re: anyone fancy this in your living room?
13 Jan 2013 18:00That's actually a quality piece of work, back in the day. Chromoly chassis, disc brakes, Cerriani frontend. Thank God for "Puppet" this is right about the time he started building these bikes for Bo and Terry Kizer. And The "Richie Rich" shop, Broadway Kawasaki screwing! He knew to move the back wheel farther back. and he started his hand made aluminum bodies. "Puppet is dragbike History" and only a few of you reading this know it! "God Speed Pup!"
