Some of the CL's detail work he describes in the video is interesting - moving the shocks to slim the bike, getting the right look for the fork ears and headlight bucket, shaping the seat with a grab strap etc.
Overall, I like the Tracker and love the CL.

Scrambler is okay. But the flat tracker is my favorite of the two.

Both are exceptionally well done.

regards,
Rob

I'm really torn.. I like the looks except for the water cooled twin. The big radiator and the overall look of the engine just jumps out at me and clashes with the rest of the bike.

I think they are both very cool. Not a v-twin fan at all, but in my opinion these have way more character and appeal than those custom choppers everyone is building these days. Flattracker is my favorite of the two.
