Gaspar, Melchior and Balthasar kicked me out of the band..... they said I didnt fit the image they were trying to project. 

So I went solo.  -Me

That bike is very Mad Max - I wouldn't kick it out of the garage.

which of the bevel bikes had drums in the front?  i wouldnt' want drums on the front for anything...   [puke]

So those huge Fontana 4 double leading shoe brakes that used to be fitted to TZ250's way back when wouldn't work for you? That was a very fine brake and it looked way cool too. IMO. (And yes, I'm old enough that I rode with one of those brakes on the street. Not fitted on the TZ though)
No modification goes unpunished. Memento mori.  Good people drink good beer.  Things happen pretty fast at high speeds.

It's all up to your will level, your thrill level and your skill level.  Everything else is just fluff.

Strange bike, but props for imagination.

no, not any more.  plus, they are incorrect for a Ducati, albeit a highly modded, customized setup.  yes, they look kind of cool.  i don't know the weight of the tz250 offhand, but those 750ss roundcases run over 500 lbs and i want all the front braking ability i can get

"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the airâ€"these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

It's like I keep saying:  Those who would sacrifice a free range session for a giant beer, deserve neither free range time nor a giant beer.

i have had guys reach back and grab my crotch in an attempt to get around me. i'll either blow in their ear or ask them politely to let go of my wang.

the close-ups of the fairing have me not as thrilled over it, but I do like it  [beer]

Not my favorite Zero creation, but I'd let it in my garage.  [thumbsup]
