if it had a skinny rear, and gone minimal for the seat, I can dig it

yes, I'm being serious

:edit: can you imagine the kind of crazy subframe you could fab up for that? make it look like nothing but a floaty saddle, and bolt a bit of a fender/hugger to the swing arm?

HAWT!

Find it and I'll buy it on the spot.

You know that Stuart can build more if needed in the future... plus it got some amazing fuel economy with the carb / small valve setup he had on it.

What's wrong wid it?

Seriously though kinda cool if there was less size difference between the front and rear tires. Backs to fat, fronts to skinny. A little moderation between them and I'd ride it.

It had a unique sound! But I'll be honest and admit that I didn't hear your bike at all as we rode out of (2007) Laguna Seca back into Monterey. (my DesmoDevil was pretty loud then) It was fun seeing all those heads spinning around wondering what in the heck our two bikes were as we cruised out of there. (you get good at reading peoples lips as they say "what the *uck is that...") I still haven't found a copy of the helicopter video of us heading out -- but (4) different people have seen it on tv. Some folks were supposed to send pics of us riding out as well -- never saw those either.

I guess when you get the new bike done and I get mine -- we'll have to do a reprise. I'm sure I can get a volunteer to ride my DesmoDevil. Spidey and a few other customers of yours/mine probably would join in the fun as well...

Needa a better head light and tail, like a choppa tail. And highway pegs

I'm 90% certain that tail is of the MH900E...

I like it, but the rear tire seems like an excursion of exaggeration.

That said, I'd take either if someone was handing them out.

TAftonomos · May 22, 2009, 07:32:35 PM

I like it all, cept the huge rear tire. Huge rear tires belong on 12' long busa's and 15' long choppah's
