I definitely like it, its my style all day. Those pipes though...noooo thanks. Talk about sweaty balls and leg burns. So unpractical, and thats form over function in a nutshell.

Re: Bike exif
31 Jan 2016 16:15It looks like he did a neat job, but like so many it appears that he doesn't understand much about motorcycle geometry or frame dynamics. He cut off the rear of the frame but did not weld in a cross-member to keep the two frame sections from wandering about while riding. Also, I suspect he exaggerates more than a little when he states “It was a really fun bike to work on, and it’s even more fun to ride. It’s light and quick.” Give me a break! Not only are those Dunlop K70 tires horrible (I speak from years of personal experience with them) it looks like he hasn't even ridden the thing yet! Notice the nubbies on the tires. :laugh: Ed

IMO bike exif is a place for bikes that look good and dont get ridden.

Yeah, my 550 outran the 750 twin I had. Vibrating low power and heavy feeling. about a year after I got it I had someone offer me a no title 78 for a grand or so, he said it did first and second gear wheelies all day long... Also called it the widowmaker.
my bikes; 80kz1000(project), 77 gl1000, 74 h2 (project)
Past; 78 kz1000, 83 kz550
