watch part motorcycles

Thought you guys might like to see some of these motorcycles I've built using used watch parts.

I've made around 20 of them so far and am a tad obsessed, please note that no watches were hurt during the making of these motorcycles, all the parts came from watches that were beyond repair.

thanks guys!
Dalip ... i got the inspiration to do these when I saw someone in Brazil do one and asked him if i can purchase one ... he told me that they were not for sale and that no one could ever make them as good as his ... so i accepted the challange ... and frankly I think mine are better
