StG Nautilus - Cycleworld Sep. '09 *pics*

[archerynut]

any readers of this fine publication here? Septembers issue has an article about a bike from Japan. classic v-twin custom but the builder is a gun nut! especially german weapons. he incorporated obviously many styling cues from the StG 44. as well as the barrel shroud, and a release mechanism from an
MG42, both located on the tank of the bike. the builders love of u-boats and all things Jules Vern/20,000 leagues under the sea.the prodigious use of rivets was prominently featured on the bike. i'm not one for v-twin customs, they look like toys, but this one is pretty neat and i thought the gun nuts here might like to see a few pics. sorry if this has been posted before.

Read it too, read it too! How great when my two passions are united in one story. A few months ago Peter Egan refered to a No1Mk3 Lee Enfield in one of his columns. Needless to say he's the top writer of the bike world
