Comments from the seller

Fully roadworthy bike with new screen, tires and chrome tips added to handle bars and brake fluid caps. Full LED tail, indicator and head lamps fitted. Recently serviced with new battery added. Check out the Video for all angles. This amazing bike was 6 months in the making. It has been confirmed by the BMW Museum in Germany as totally unique, and is the only Aboriginal FULLY dot painted motorcycle they have on record. Painted and signed by Noongar Man Ken Farmer, this bike is a real head turner and conversation piece. The paints used are sun safe and is coated in a special acrylic for more sun protection. A brilliant show bike! The story represents the Derbal Yerrigan (SWAN) River in the Perth CBD, with Dream-Time images including camps, men and women. This is an amazing collector's item that will appreciate in value. Please note, painting is included in the price or the purchase price reduced by $3,000 without.
