He makes beautiful motorcycles. I really like this latest cafĂ© 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.

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.
