Time For Some Aesthetics

Being somewhat happy with the way the battery/motor setup turned out, I decided to breathe some life into the style of the motorcycle.  As I mentioned before, I wanted to go for the cafe racer style, but with a unique take.  I started with the lowered handlebars and got onto crafting a seat and "gas tank".  I was really excited to finally see things starting to take shape.  Rather than a frame with electronics strapped to it, I felt like I finally had a proper motorcycle.  Later on I used the cardboard mockup as support for laying down some fiberglass, which will act as a cover for the high power electronics that are used for controlling the power to the bike.
