Finally got my Marchesini SM wheels (only took a year to get em) put Pilot Pure tires on, new rear brake and rotor, DID chain, M4 CF can and a few pieces of bling. Removed the air box and went with a large K&N, went down to a 15T front sprocket and put a Bazzaz on it for tuning.











Woohoohoohoo! Two personal records! For breath holding and number of sharks shot in the face.

I'd feel bad if you did as well.  :D

That's purdy  [drool]

I'm waffling between this bike and an 848 SF to replace my Duke II (ah who am I kidding? I have no superfluous money)
I own several motorcycles. I have owned lots of motorcycles. And have bolted and/or modified lots of crap to said motorcycles...

Mr Muffins - very clean look from you again  [thumbsup]

What's under the 1-2-3-4 front/tank plastic sections and the two rear sections.

I have never checked the Duke layout and wonder if some plastic can be removed or partially cut...

That is one FANTASTIC looking bike.  Holy crapazola!  The upright riding position, gold / orangey goodies make it one heckuva seductive bike.  Well done.

My pants are fitting kinda funny right now though.   :-\

WANT!!! [drool] [popcorn] [bacon] [Dolph] Man, that is awesome! I'd give someone's left nut for a SM scooter like that. Course I'd kiss my drivers license goodbye by the end of the first week. [roll] I may be oldish but that bike would knock about 30 years off my riding habits! ;)
I plan to list the Federal Gov't. as a dependent on my next 1040 tax filing!

I have flying honey badgers and I'm not afraid to use them!

The fact that flame throwers exist is proof that someone somewhere said "I'd sure like to set those people over there on fire but I'm just not close enough to get the job done."

CONFIDENCE: the feeling you have right before you understand the situation.

There really isnt much you can do with the body work. Not much of a tail section to work with.
