StarFan Posted June 26, 2015 Share #1 Posted June 26, 2015 Well, finally Kristjan´s Midnight Venture got finished, all purdy and tuned. Kristjan drove from the Northern part of the Iceland where he lives to my place in Reykjavik (South part) to spend a night, take a test drive and give his verdict. Well, the verdict was watery eyes and a big hug. Just the hug made it worth while for me. Been working on his bike trough the winter and put over 200 hours into it. Even though I say so myself then I think I pretty much nailed it. Bike is better than new with only 16.000 miles on it. Here are some pictures of a proud guy taking his bike back home. Enjoy Kristjan !!! http://i1281.photobucket.com/albums/a501/jonaslill/Kristjan%20Ben%20Eggertsson%20Midnight%20Venture%202003/Kistjan%20delivered/SAM_3385_zps5dqsa4vz.jpg One happy Guy ! http://i1281.photobucket.com/albums/a501/jonaslill/Kristjan%20Ben%20Eggertsson%20Midnight%20Venture%202003/Kistjan%20delivered/SAM_3383_zpss0ozxfdr.jpg Even proud I think ! http://i1281.photobucket.com/albums/a501/jonaslill/Kristjan%20Ben%20Eggertsson%20Midnight%20Venture%202003/Kistjan%20delivered/SAM_3384_zpsi1jwnivb.jpg JAMES DEAN WHO ? http://i1281.photobucket.com/albums/a501/jonaslill/Kristjan%20Ben%20Eggertsson%20Midnight%20Venture%202003/Kistjan%20delivered/SAM_3382_zpsym6t9qaa.jpg SIBLINGS from my workshop ! http://i1281.photobucket.com/albums/a501/jonaslill/Kristjan%20Ben%20Eggertsson%20Midnight%20Venture%202003/Kistjan%20delivered/SAM_3377_zpsagqttggm.jpg DANG !

Hummingbird Posted June 26, 2015 Share #8 Posted June 26, 2015 Oh my gosh -- you should have given ample warning. Beautiful is all I can say because I have to go hydrate myself because I drooled all over the keyboard, desk and one of our cats walked by and he's soaking wet as well. Golly, what a fine example of talent and an enourmous amount of "care" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eagleeye Posted June 26, 2015 Share #12 Posted June 26, 2015 Absolutely Gorgeous, and I certainly can see why you would love to keep them both. You know Jonas, I sit here and look at those bikes and shake my head at the details that you put into them, but just now I see something I hadn't before. --The white cover in front of the gas tank on Kristjan's bike-- Painted?

Yes, painted the same color as the rest of the white details (actually pearl white). I let Kristhjan decide afterwards if he wanted to keep it that way or have it black. Have an extra set of black ones just in case he did not like it and actually I was not sure of this would work ut being white. Thought it would be to much. After putting the bike together I liked it. My taste - I would not chance it but everyone for his own taste right ? Am gonna get the ones for the Red Baron Chromed and see how it turns out. Will post pictures when I am done but that will not be untill late september. Thank all for your nice comments. If anybody wants to have a closer look then just come to ICELAND Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BIG TOM Posted June 26, 2015 Share #15 Posted June 26, 2015 Nice job buddy... so when should I ship mine to you? You know the more I see pictures of Kristjan, the more he scares me.....He has those crazed little beady eyes....You have to watch those guys with them beady eyes.....He would be the type of guy that would SLOW down when he sees a police car....you know the type...I wouldn't share a tent with him....lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
