He makes beautiful motorcycles. I really like this latest café racer. The Dustbin racer based on a loop frame Guzzi was very impressive also.

Those big polished valve covers on the v9 are the originals! They sure look better that way than in the original black.

He's a great follow on Instagram if you go go that route...  i think it's @craigrodsmith  I have been following this build for months there...  somebody call a vet, that V9 is one sick puppy

Is C.Rodsmith one of several bike builders contracted by Piaggio to 'reinvent' the V9 in a design study?  R3~

At least he bothered to put a decent front end on it, all they need to do now is update the 1950's rear suspension.
