Our latest show stopper…the Green Meanie!

When I rolled into the plant on my motorcycle yesterday, Lupe was putting the finishing touches on this Florida-bound beauty… 

Folks, the photos just don’t do justice to this latest tractor-themed California Scooter P-51 custom motorcycle.   It’s beautiful, and there are lots of subtle touches that make it so.   Let’s take a look at these in detail…

The colors are the best place to start describing this custom motorcycle.   The tractor green frame, tank, fenders, and fork lowers…the billet aluminum…the yellow wheels…the yellow seat…the yellow pin striping.  It all works.   Like I said…this beauty is a show stopper.

Here’s a view from the starboard side.   Hey, a play on words…the custom painting on this beauty was artfully applied by our good buddy Doug at Starside Designs…on both the port and starboard sides…

The seat completes the bike.   We had a standard black seat on the bike for our road test, but this bike’s new owner specified a custom seat in matching yellow.   It works!

I like it!

Here’s another profile view, showcasing the powerful P-51 engine OHC engine…and folks, that counter-balanced overhead cam powerplant really puts out the ponies.   These things are fast!

Did you check out the detailed matching green paint on the kickstand, the forward controls, and the chainguard?   It’s the little details like these that really make a custom motorcycle stand out.  

Here’s another nice touch…our Pro-One custom billet mirrors!  

Wowee!

Yellow wheels complete the look of this bike…these are our stock CSC wheels with paint matching the bike’s pin striping.    I like the look.  

You know, painting the wheels to match different parts of a bike is a nice touch.   Sometimes we’ve gone the other way, too, like when we prepped a silver bike, and the silver tank and fenders were painted to match the wheels and the engine.  

These bikes are palettes…there’s a lot you can do to create an exclusive look.

 And here are two last photos, showing the P-51 Green Meanie from both sides… 

I sure like this bike, and I’m still having the same problem I’ve had for the last 4 years…every time a new custom rolls out of the plant, I’m convinced it’s the most beautiful bike we’ve ever done!  

That’s exactly how I feel about the Green Meanie tractor bike…I really think it’s a show stopper.

The mean streets of Florida will never be the same!
