   I'm pretty sure mine is the ultimate street bike (for me) at this point. This 900 mill loves the low RPM range. I feel like I'm shaking the pavement rumbling around Cleveland on it.

It's sweet for sure.

1982 Moto Guzzi V50 Mk3 (project bike)

yeah, thought that myself  [laugh]
PO did a nice job on the chopped/cored exhaust but those end caps point straight up at their critics.

^^^ that

Appears as though right and left have been switched. Perhaps the owner liked the way the upswept exhaust outlets looked. Not so good if parked in the rain with no cover. Might want to switch them back.

Nice Bandit, what did the spoked front wheel come off of? I am working on a front end swap on my GF's CB550 & she wants to keep a spoked wheel.  It is a 17" correct?

Yup - they're 17", 5.5" rear and 3.5" front.  They're Alpinas made for a Sport Classic.   [Dolph]  The Sport Classic is about your only choice for 5.5/3.5 17" laced wheels.
