Isn't it better to chain the bike to something other than itself?

From what I can tell, it looks incredible.  The pics are just really small and therefore hard to really see.  If you have some larger ones, post them up waytogo

That's a remote reservoir for the rear shock.

Reservoirs are ugly and why mount them on the side of the bike if you can mount them elsewhere that is cooler?

Other tricks -- if you look real close, you can see the frame rails now curve into behind the taillight itself and no broken kink leftover from the beertray.  The grab handles have been narrowed and moved back to the edge of the taillight.  The seat release is unlike any other out there.  Taillight mounting is unique. And all the packaging within the rear tail section is 100% custom.  Then again, the upper shock area is unique for the 996 suspension setup.  And the frame gussets are usually missed by many -- but they are there.  Plus there are a few other modifications to the frame that most people miss also... but that is the fun of it and what makes this bike to unique!  Grin

The tail on Mangus' bike is more than drop dead gorgeous.  No shake while riding, even on our bumpy North East roads.  Fantastic design and execution, Mark!
