I've had this one in my back pocket for a few months. I picked up an orphan front Motomag 1 last year and set out on a search to find a matching rear. I didn't have a bike to use the mags on, I just knew I always wanted a set. Almost immediately after buying the front mag, this frame and fork popped up. I just had to grab it. I sweet-talked my wife and upped my laundry/cooking game and got the green light to purchase! I found the matching rear Motomag less than three weeks later. I actually built this bike on New Years Day 2022, but I haven't posted it until now because I was not happy with the pictures. It's difficult to photograph this bike, especially with a cell phone. Snow is not a pleasing background to me and drab Michigan winters make for sub-par pictures. So, rather than drag this out any longer, here it is. The pics were taken at various times between January 3rd and March 16th, 2022 - from our basement, our living room, a local parking lot and our backyard patio.
