Contradictional and crazy style: the ratbike

You can build the ratbike style from every kind of bikes. You just need some tasteful or tasteless ideas. The latter might be an art style too.

The essence of this style is a rebellion against the harmony and traditional things with some rusty parts.

People often say bad criticism about abstract painting like for example; "what's that ? is this an art style ? everybody can do that" ...and so on. Not sure !

I remember that i was gazing at a ratbike for a half hour coz every part was disgusting from mirror to footrest. It made a bad and disgusting impression but that's why it was nice, okay maybe not nice but unique. It's not too easy to build this kind of bike and the designer needs more time.

The ratbike owners might be strange people but this is also a style.

There are some photos about Honda ratbikes if you feel like building it. I guess i would rather use my classic cruiser and chopper.
