Nostalgia quietly developed into an idea to build a custom as a tribute to the rebellious 90. Because that's when all the bikers went crazy on the choppers, converted from domestic opposition. For nearly a decade customizing "operated" these engines. The idea of building opposite the custom, to put it mildly, fresh, but with such a sauce inspired!
Encouraged so that in one God-forsaken place on the shores of
the Black sea, and by some strange coincidence was bought
old boxer motor, the appearance of which did not give any identification. But it's important: the motor was
not old "Ural-Dnepr, looking at who immediately lost all enthusiasm.
The motor was installed, but the Bavarian! Then
everything is simple. The title for the bike were already spinning in the air.
At the stage of nostalgia invented to give GRUNGER. Here the contrast and
metaphor, and hyperbole and distortion, and allegory, and again all the same
90-E. In the construction of "Granger" was selected concept is
tightly linked "biscuit" with the lowest landing. On a motorcycle not
have an unnecessary accessory, only the most necessary. Built the bike less
than a year and got in just in time for spring. All the nostalgia of memories and
joy from traveling came again with the first departure.
Here and old-style engine did not forget to show their
harmful nature, why reflexes mechanics, clearly learned back in the late 90s,
appeared intuitively and immediately, and footrests foot on his native place -
rose, and "biscuit" fun galloped on familiar turf. In short,
remembered everything. It was then... the Task was to achieve the right mood.
And we did it!
