"What bike is that, any modifications to the chassis? I've been staring at your avatar for some time now and really like the looks of that bike."

This bike is a mongrel. It started life as a 1980 LTD but way back in about '82 I changed it over to what you see here so I could race it. Changed the wheels over for better tire selection, put on Z1 body parts with Z1R sidecovers, V&H header, smoothies, H2 forks to lower it as I hate tipping over, stock chassis.
