I like it!
Am I sinning?
Unfortunately, Fred Flintstone is the responsible of making bike selections for the USA, so this is EU only ATM.

528 lbs claimed wet weight, 298mm front discs, rubber brake lines.
And 1985 called, they want their pencil-thin forks back right away.

The exchange rate is very close to 1:1 for cars and motorcycles, at least for many EU manufacturers

A tail chop of that ugly plate mount, Exhaust similar to Boomtubes or a Spark 2-1, Beefier Ohlins forks and some Clip-ons. I'd be in on that.

Like a carbon copy minus some horsepower.
Put some 50mm Marzocchi's and a turbo/supercharge on it.
Hey Stu, call yamaha could use your help.

Love it. The exhaust will have to get some aftermarket treatment, otherwise looks really nice to me.
