Occasionally I see custom motorcycles that are out of this world in terms of design, looks and specs. This one fulfills these criteria without a problem. Called Zen Motorcycles  , it's the brainchild of Laurent Dutruel.
Laurent makes special motorcycles like a French baker makes croissants, with style and "panache".
Have a look at this WL45. It was started with a Harley-Davidson 1942 engine (never used, not even by an old lady to church), a H-D Sportser gearbox, plus a few bits and bobs thrown in, like a turbo.
He spent 1300 hours to make this unique piece.
Just have a look at the details.
He doesn't only make special motorcycles based on Harleys. He uses several different manufacturers.
Here's one based on a Buell, called the XB9RS. It was his first project based on an American V-twin engine.
Laurent not only designs motorcycles. He also makes furniture, made from aluminium but looks like old fashion French baroque style furniture. Very "sexy" looking. Have a look at his site, and you'll see.
