Title: This Month's Bike Post by: island_duc on June 10, 2008, 05:36:49 PM . . . . looks kinda odd to me. There's a rear cowl and belly pan, but no front fairing (or ferring as they called on CL) or front fender. It's weird because there's more visual weight on the back. It reminds me of a dude who's bald, but still keeps that ring 'o hair on the sides and back.

Title: Re: This Month's Bike Post by: teddy037.2 on June 10, 2008, 08:04:42 PM I think it works. lot of neg space in the rear w/the low pipes, and the lower bit to the seat cowl make a nice visual line. and the absence of bright red up front helps lend to that line
Title: Re: This Month's Bike Post by: island_duc on June 10, 2008, 09:14:47 PM Comb over . . . now that's funny [laugh] [laugh] [laugh]
I do like that negative space thing, though. I think when i get those DP pipes, I'm going to get the lows; then put on the short CF tail that Teddy hasn't put on his bike yet.

We all know how good looking those Arrows are, especially on red bikes.

[evil] Title: Re: This Month's Bike Post by: MadDuck on June 11, 2008, 10:55:32 PM A DMPI? I am totally ignorant. Whatever it is don't be putting one on my house.
Title: Re: This Month's Bike Post by: DRKWNG on June 11, 2008, 11:50:42 PM lol It's a military thing, maybe Tristan will know what it is. And no, you wouldn't want one on your house. [evil]
Title: Re: This Month's Bike Post by: eltristo on June 12, 2008, 11:06:57 PM And no, you wouldn't want one on your house. [evil] Unless you have great insurance and want a new abode [thumbsup] Title: Re: This Month's Bike Post by: DRKWNG on June 13, 2008, 12:01:55 AM Unless you have great insurance and want a new abode [thumbsup] You know, I never quite thought about it from that angle... But what do you think the insurance company would say to a claim like that? "my house was damaged due to high order of detonation..." Title: Re: This Month's Bike Post by: MadDuck on June 13, 2008, 08:53:01 AM If you could get it to burn you could get it covered under the fire insurance. Merely blowing it up likely would not be covered. Make sure to order the napalm in the strike. ;D Ah, napalm in the morning. Smells like victory.
