Nice bike, very nice video.  Welcome to the group.  What is sitting on top of the gas tank?  Is that your instruments?  If so can you provide info.

Thank you all for your comments! That box on top of the tank hosts the original speedo/odometer (though with a modified faceplate to make it look older), a water temperature gauge, a digital voltimeter, a USB charger, oil pressure and fuel reserve indicators and 4 military 3-point switches which (when properly set) allow you to start the bike. I hate keys and always use hidden switches instead. This is only 81 combinations, but it's better than a single switch and can be reconfigured easily by opening the box and changing the cable chain configuration :)
Last, but not least. the box has a hinge in the front and a latch in the back so that you can lift it up and refuel. The fuel cap (well, a part of it) is bolted to the bottom of the box, so there are no keys there either.

Overall, it adds to the industrial look (and oddity in general) of the bike.

Now that is cool and unique!  Show us the gas cap if you can

Hi,
Can you tell me how you mounted the air box to the bike?
How did you mount a round filter to the square box?

Cheers  :2thumbup:

FINALLY a custom "scrambler" that actually looks cool. I'm quite impressed

That's a sweet looking bike!  How does that seat hold up for long distance?  How's it perform offroad?

I like this! Only kinda feel sorry for the k100rs it was as it at least looked good in my eye... Does put ideas in my head might i ever crash or get bored with my own bike! How did you make that airbox replacing thingy? Looks cool and maybe a bit better than just stick a big K&N on the afm...
