Bomber 48


The Bomber 48...The owner wanted the bike to look black from a distance, but upon closer inspection you can notice rivets, metal panels and rust around all the joins. 
A Pin-Up mural fly's across the tank on a bomb, with 'Forty Eight' in script written on a torn banner. You will also find Military 'HD' logos, hand painted warning signs and other Old'Skool themed artwork.
