Awwww...cmon its not the ugliest bike ever...........its just.................well......................... ...........special [sm=smiley23.gif]

 

no don't do digi marpat..it looks bad..ive actually seen a zx10 painted desert digi marpat..with a helmet to match..its lame...lol have also seen a hummer h2..even the rims had the pattern on it...i ssay...now of course you know a million times more about this than me hardcorp...but thigns like that are just an unnecesary target indicator

 

R1's are sweet, it's the only other bike I ever desire.

Hell of a find. If you ever want to sell it, I'll double your cash...

Carbed, right? I'd just buy the gears and rebuild it yourself as a tinkering project - no hurry. Have fun, congrats!

 

Yeah kid it is Carbed I really didn't think he was going to sell me the damn thing. I had $400 and some change on me in cash and just made an off the cuff offer and he took it maybe he was just tired of it or something else was going on. It's all water under the bridge at this point, though

 

Sweet deal Hardcorp! I agree, even if you still have to dump some cash into it, you'll still come out ahead. It's definitely got potential.

 

Nice find!!

Some people have all the luck. You deserve the deal though.

 

What a great project HC. And basically for free, damn. That's the original R1 right there...I'd be happy to add "YZF-R1" to my daily ebay searches. I check 'em religiously, I'll bet we get smooth OEM glory and clad that baby right.

Hot damn...good job. Makes 150 horsepower BTW, in case anyone was wondering...[sm=insomnia.gif]

 

HC, great find. it certainly has some awesome potential. I look forward to seeing the progress...

 

when i bought my zx12, i was told it had a ring issue in cyl 3, he started it up right on the spot, after i had got it torn down, 2 3 and 4 needed alot more work then was talked about, cyl 3 had no plug in it and was rusty as all hell, i still can figure out how he managed to start it, i still have the bike we got it fixed 100% but it might have more wrong then he was saying. just a heads up.......... not that you needed it.

 

It really is ugly, but for the price it is much more appealing. Maybe you'll get lucky with the tranny and it won't be so bad.
