I do like the swingarm and the exhaust, tho I'd probably go with bigger cans.

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

i don't see any pivots or levers, much less shocks/springs of any type...
gotta be something integral to the yoke.. that would be miserable to ride

"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.

I find it odd that the builder went that far, but didn't fill the dimples in the rear of the frame...
Maybe it's just me.

Being faster than you thought possible…it feels good. No, screw that—it feels like shotgunning a gallon of adrenaline and chasing it with an all-night orgy aboard a burning Viking boat.

It's like the SBK-based bikes, leave all of the bodywork tabs on, just in case.

Wow! The tank and tail follow the Sport 1000 frame beautifully. I like it!

Ugh, I can't stand it. The tank is too long and the shape is nasty. The tail piece is too flat. Also, I understand the the builder is trying to make the exhaust and belly pan look integrated like one piece and it does, but unfortunately it looks pregnant.

agree. the tank and seat would be cool on an ultralight (maybe with a single cylinder?) build, and the engine with the exhaust/bellypan would be cool if it had a beefy tank/fairing/seat to match it.
the front end totally loses me, and ive always hated that swingarm.

well, you think bevel towers are the shit, so your opinion is invalid.
