So, what's the story behind this photo? Did I miss something? Does the guy sitting in the middle of this line of toys own them all?

How long did the process take? Any hitches along the way?

Similar process in Ohio. Pass written test to get a temp MC license, then you have to pass the driving test at the BMV within a year to get your M1 endorsement or start the process all over again. During the temp license phase, you are required to wear a helmet for that first year of riding...

Racerx, you have an amazing economy with words . . .

Okay, I'm finally "getting" this 12" rim/tire heighth thing now. Call me a dumb-ass if you will, but now I understand that with 12" rims we are limited to sidewall heighth, and it's a trade-off: lower sidewalls are available, but don't afford the ride comfort/rim protection that 4.0 x 10s...

Did you experience any clearance problems with the swing arm/rear fender/front forks? What size are the tires?

These tires and rims look great on your machine. I would imagine it handles A LOT better on asphalt with the street tires! I had to laugh when I viewed a YouTube video showing two guys on CTs aggressively riding the famed Dragon's Tail at Deals Gap with Trail Wings (see attached link.) Not for...

Whoa, now! What happened to the CT with the 12" wheels? Did you ever put both wheels on? How does it ride? Pictures, p!ease!

So you finally got that bike. When? How do you like it?

Yikes! Hope for your sake she's mentally stable :(

This bike was ahead of its time. That's a zero-emissions exhaust system your looking at :ROFLMAO:

Adam, what's the speed rating on those 12 inchers?

Nitro, I had this same model back in high school but it certainly didn't look as nice as yours! Almost too pretty to ride :ROFLMAO: Great job! Any idea how much this project will end up costing you? Just curious.

I'm sure you're right about this, and appreciate today's English lesson, i.e., the imagery-rich term "douche canoe." I will proudly work this into as many conversations as possible going forward :ROFLMAO:

I'm sure you're right about that, and greatly appreciate today's English lesson, i.e., "douche canoe." I will use the term it as often as possible going forward :p

What, if anything, does this imply about the knowledge these scammers have regarding their target audience (CT enthusiasts/boomers who have discretionary money) and, by extension, our perceived naievity/vulnerability??? I'm always amazed by the police blotter section of our local newspaper...

Adam, are you planning to use balance beads or rim weights to get these things trued up?

The tires and rims look great! Looking forward to seeing them on the bike.

Point taken. I agree that after coupla hours of saddle time is a good time for a break. Also, in my neck of the woods there are plenty of gas stations. I've seen the G' Craft side tanks mounted on a CT, and I'm sure they're well made, but I just think they detract from the bikes' aesthetics.

Whoops, just discovered that the clone's frame is wider under the seat area than a real CT. The tank won't fit in our bikes.
