The subject title is in relation to Tim's sweet Cook Bros. Bikes, as seen here...
Tim's Alpha and Omega Well, here's my Delta and Gamma to his Alpha and Omega...
1st the Delta...
And for the Gamma...
This one looks like a catalog cover...
Thanks to everyone involved with helping me get these to this point.
Darrin, Jesse, Dan, Rich, Tim, Geoff, Jeff, Erik, eBay, and so many more. And very special props to Claude (masterstint)
Couldn't have done it without you buddy! You're the only one I know that's crazier than I am! But that's good, right?
Enjoy them, I know I do.

The CBRs are coming out of the woodwork! Those are two incredible bikes! Can you tell us a bit more about the builds? Were these made with all NOS parts, or were components restored?
Dig it!

I'm little speechless....they are well, amazing...
The bikes are so clean, and the photography is spot on!...I'm totally digging the Cook Bros. builds of the last few months...very inspiring.
Can you tell me about the Cook Bros logos on the bars, set post, cranks etc, they look laser engraved, which is obvious they can't have been (no last engravers in that era). How did they do it back then?
Congratulations on 2 stunning builds!

I'm so jealous. I did not have the patience or the b@lls to pull the trigger on all original components for my CBR build. Great job.

Awesome effort. Probably one of the most difficult bikes to source - especially in the condition these are in. Truly impressive. Love the number plate!

it was done with a "methods marking systems" acid etching machine which puts a small electrical charge into acid on a templete to burn its way in
