Nerd Guy Theory

From @nerdguytheory on Instagram

Latest snapshots from my nerdy hobbies feed -- synced from Instagram on each build.

Bambu Lab Creations

Yamaha XSR

The Neo-Retro Ride

My Yamaha XSR -- a neo-retro machine that matches the aesthetic of everything I build.

A silver and black Yamaha XSR motorcycle, with a helmet marked "KANAK JR" resting on its rear seat, is parked on a paved street. Trees and buildings line the background, with other vehicles visible further down the road.
