Marc Frantz wanted to surprise me. He bought a lot of parts from my catalog (big money), went to work during very long months (so many hours) and secretly built this bike that he dedicates to me (I am speechless). I am extremely flattered. And of course he deserves this post while I am still alive.
“Cyril, Here are all the pictures from the professional photographer of the Cyril Huze tribute bike. There is a very good chance that this bike will be on TV, and it will be named the Cyril Huze tribute bike. I think it is nice to have a tribute to you while you are alive, because one cannot enjoy anything underground. Hey if the Academy Awards can do it, why can’t we? This is as a thank you for your help my friend, which I appreciated so much! I hope you like the pictures. You deserve this accolade. You are a prince among men. Thanks again brother!! Kind Regards. Marc Frantz”
Good he bought the parts from you. Well deserved Cyril. stay alive!
What an honor – Congratulations!
An honor indeed! Where can we see more pictures?
WOW!!! What a beautiful bike & tribute to a great builder!
Love & kisses

How does it feel Cyril? You know you deserve it. This guy (the builder) did something very cool.
Don’t worry. A tribute bike isn’t the same as a memorial bike!
Thank you Don. Feeling much better now.
Do you have a link where there are more pictures of the bike?
Unfortunately, not at this time.
Cyril: What a honor and so your style. Guess it is the parts from your catalog. We need to see more pictures or at least know what magazine the pictures will be in. Have you taken it out for a cruise around the neighborhood yet??? Glad you got it while you are with us to enjoy it. It is a beautiful piece of work and one of a kind. So your style!!!!!!
Here are some more pics of this gorgeous bike. We talked to Cyril who said that Mark had already posted this here. So, for those of you who would like some more pics, please go to

Marc is a fantastic guy and a great bike builder, too!
I’m proud of my brother for building such a beautiful machine, all the years being a motorcycle enthusiast have definitely paid off and the vision is definitely within you my brother, keep her up bro!
