The Blue bike in the background is Viper Ron's 1980...nice paint all the way around...can you tell I like the Venturer based fairings?
Hoping to finish Swampthing in a similar vein...she is already a bagger...just gotta nail down a real venturer fairing...i think i got one.....ofc it will have to be painted Red to match the rest of the bike...
Swampthing is the middle bike in the first pic above...1980 XS650G Special-Two

Hey Phil...
If you look at the video link i did get Addie in there too... I didnt get close ups of othe bikes for what ever reasons...those that i have here are when we parked at the highest point on the BRP...I think there are 9 bikes in that line up...a few mins after that video...Duwayne showed up and parked next to you...I got a short take on that one too
