The number of things I don't like about that bike is approaching zero.  Nice find!

I'll be the naysayer. Doesn't do a thing for me other than to look at how they did things.
Different strokes for different folks. I appreciate the work done but not the concept.

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.

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.

write up complete with video, because why even bother to build a bike if you aren't going to film a pompous self aggrandizing video about how noble it is to build a motorcycle. Roll Eyes


I cannot wait for people to stop downgrading performance in the name of  "cool". Why don't kids wanna go fast anymore?

the thing is, they arent. they waste TONS of money making clapped out bikes less capable bikes, then they choose "pretty" gear regardless of how protective it is (if they choose any gear at all)

and once they have this hard tailed, no brake power, no lights death traps they go wide open stoplight to stoplight weaving through traffic as they please.

they love risk, they just love stupid risks.

at least thats what I learned from them in my time working at a rather famous motorcycle coffee shop...

Disagree.

The tail section plastics may be a bit... egregious, but the bike as a whole is damn sexy to me.

Also looks like a ridiculously fun ride until I either shit my leathers, or hit something and disintegrated into my component pieces.

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