That would be my guess. I know 1 of my Dad's friends has something similar due to a bad knee that can't support a bike. Anything to keep on riding.
I have seen those. I would go with a sidecar rig, one of those that still allows the bike to lean. Either that, or sell my bikes and buy a lotus caterham. |

I always get mixed feeling when I see disabled guys riding a trike or something... sad because they're not able to ride a 2-wheeler anymore, but extremely happy that they have chosen to overcome and found a way to keep riding. As for that Ducati chopper... Whisky. Tango. Foxtrot.  |

Check out my oil filter forensics thread! Offended? Click here"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 air—these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

Assuming it had its 6k valve job. I have seen them at 12-14 grand. |

Sweet! I paid less than that for my S4rs last year and it's just under 5100 miles on the odometer now.
This one seems like a pretty good deal too!

Yes and no. If it's had new belts (recommended every 12,000 miles or 2 years) and a valve job (every 6,000 miles), and none of its rockers are flaking, then it's a steal. If not... |

I can't wait until Marquez gets on his level and makes Jorge trip on his tampon string.

Didn't they take care of the rockers by the time that engine came out in the 998/999?
