Game Over Cycles presents its latest project. It is a custom motorcycle inspired by 1936 Auburn 852 Boattail Speedster "Slow Burn" — a car owned by Metallica's James Hetfield and restored by James and Rick Dore.

The body lines of the motorcycle exactly mirror the shape of the Slow Burn, and its construction echoes the components of the car:

•⁠ ⁠front lamp → front of the car with radiator
•⁠ ⁠rear lamps → car lights
•⁠ ⁠steering wheel and levers → made in the style of the car's windshield frame
•⁠ ⁠front fender → finished with a chrome cover, just like Slow Burn's fenders
•⁠ ⁠30" front wheel → inspired by a car’s wheel design
•⁠ ⁠rear of the motorcycle → forms a symmetrical line with the rear of the car

The entire structure is kept in the spirit of the style in which the original vehicle was built, i.e. 1936 Auburn 852, representing the Art Deco style. This style, both in art and architecture, was expressed in an ordered and coherent form. It is characterized by symmetrical patterns, arcs, ovals and ellipses. Regardless of whether they were vehicles, clothes, interior design elements or entire buildings, Art Deco works were distinguished by their unique aesthetics, craftsmanship and the use of high-quality materials.

The entire motorcycle structure is made of steel. No plastic elements.

Clean lines. All screws covered.
