+1 and you might want to wear those biker shorts with the padding... that seat doesn't look friendly and I don't care what the motocross people say, you have to sit down eventually.

I can see it now... just cruising along when you run over a soggy leaf and the lower triple slams on the front tire (more of a second rear tire) giving the rider a forkin' tracheotomy :-X

Hell, I'd even leave the logos. The WTF factor is huge.

Don't be deceived: This bike is a travesty; an over-exaggeration catering to a very modern fetish. It is about as functional or historically based as their clothing.

I have found the built in search function on this (or any other forum for that matter) to be almost useless. Nothing to do with the moderators etc. It just comes with these public domain forum packages

Yeah - I did another search, and it came right up....

...I think it comes down to the "level" that you are in (I mean how far "into" a particular board/subsite you are) - when you search.

You need to search from the master forum, I think. Either that, or it was just some hiccup...

Sweet bikes, nontheless...but I'd rather have a 750 or something in there - or better still, just start choppin' the duc more... :o

There's a fella from the UK - I think he's based in CA now - who does some sweet cafe machines using the old Honda 750's. Carpy's his name. Buildin' cafe chops' is the game.

Schweeeettt!!!! But now in risk or major thread diversion.....

Yup, if you are in General monster forum and do a search, it will only search in the general monster forum. To search the ENTIRE forum, you need to go to the home page and search from there  [thumbsup]

Oh and the bike is awesome. I'd ride it.

Pretty sweet.

I was expecting to see one of the long swingarmed Busa's with the Loui Viton or Coach print all over it.

I always do my searches from the advanced search page (use the "Search" button in the top navigation bar. It allows you to choose specific forums to search in, or search all forums.
