personnally i couldn't give a toss what people think of my bikes, there mine i built em and thats it, but i must agree everybody elses always looks nicer than our own, i think its because we spend so much time looking and building are own its not a new build by the time we finish it.

Ad - it's the old thing...

'You always want what you haven't got' and 'if you've got it, you don't appreciate it'

I suppose if you look at something too much, you get bored of it.

Pete's right, build for yourself and be happy dude!

I gotta say, I'm really happy with what I've built up recently. I obviously appreciate a nice bike when I see it, and there are some awesome builds on here, but I've built mine up exactly how I wanted them, and I couldn't be happier with the results.

Cheers

Guy  :)

Ad, I think it also helps how the bike has been photographed.
Some of the builds I have seen that look fantastic have been really well photographed using lights and a clear background.

I just lean mine against the house wall ! :-[

Agree....your GT's looked the dogs when you posted them on here, although none had blue tuffs on them?? wonder what happened to those?  ;)

But as far as mine goes, i'm building one and i'm well happy with it and am not really bothered what anyone else thinks (street beat bashers) also people have personal colour preferences and may not like your choices, I for one always loved the Bogey green with blue tuffs and bits BITD, so much i painted my old Burner that colour way back then, others find it an awful colour.

Maybe you're having one of those low confidence days?  ;)
