It is normally Paul's wont to paint his bikes drab colours, so as not to distract from the engineering that has gone into the bike. This bike would have been a subtle shade of matt black as well, had it not been for the fact that the guy who owns the Joe Bloggs clothing empire came to buy some furniture one day. Then Paul saw the rather fetching shade of silver on his Bentley, and thought, hmmm. So base silver it was, and it fits in really well with the whole bike. The fuel tank is fabricated from sheet steel, and fits around the carburettor, a Ducati 906 Paso item. The air filter can just be seen through the slots in the rear of the fibreglass cover that goes over the fuel tank proper. The carburettor is operated by a Honda 50 throttle slider which sits at the end of some hand built bars. Bet you can't guess whose hand it was that made them. Each time you look at the bike, you see something different. Like the brake discs. Paul didn't think the standard ones looked quite right, so he made some of his own in stainless. It's the attention to the small details like that, plus the sheer skill and effort that went into building "Road Creature", that saw Paul win best engineering on his first trip out with the bike to the Rock and Blues show and the machine has taken major awards against its competitors from Motor Sale, Holland 1998 to Faro, Portugal 1999.
