Girl with the Dragon Tattoo Bike Story

So, yeah, a little late or whatever, but me and the Meggers checked out the Girl with the Dragon Tattoo last night. Pretty damn good overall. In an interview with Rooney Mara, the star of the film, the interviewer asked if she really learned how to ride the bike in the film, etc. And then she said something like "In the film, it really is a big bike you're riding." Well, not really: a late-'60s Honda CL350, done up cafe style. I was expecting a big Ducati or something, but was stoked to see something that would fit the character a little better. And of course, diggin' the old Hondas. Here is the story of the bike's build.
