You wouldn't get far with it but it'd be fun between tank fills!

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.

I find it disturbing that you're imagining me in a sauna, never mind the teletubbie aspect of it

Ouch!  No flippin way.  Look at the short wheelbase.  Clip ons and rearsets will have you looking like your screwing a football.  Knees at your ears isn't any way to ride unless you prefer the 'I'm in prison' pose. 

It's nicely done as it is- perhaps a slightly longer swingarm and longer seat to slide around on.  Then level the orientation of the bike (looks like it's canting forward)  But hey, it'd be a hoot as it is!

I'm used to racing ysr50's on kart tracks...  So I could care less about looking like I'm "screwing a football", as you so eloquently put it...

It looks like it would be a hoot in the canyons, at the track, or squirting through traffic on your way to work...

Besides, with 60hp at only 250lbs, people would have too much trouble keeping up when the road gets twisty to make fun of what I looked like...  Evil


YMMV

Yes indeed.  That power / weight ratio would be a helluva lot of fun.

Hello gorgeous

I wish someone else would make one of these...  Perfect weight/hp...

Cagiva Mito 500?  Sigh..

"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.

that looks like lots of fun for sure.   I'd also like a dirty cheap version of that with about 30-40hp to have as a learner bike for friends/family interested in learning to ride.
