From this (GSX1100G):


To this:

















And that is why motorcycles are cooler than cars. Check out the location of the rear brake. ZTL front brake. Obviously the SSSa and SSFF. Homegrown frame/tank. Just awesome

I get it. It is cool. But, why suspension with 3 inches of travel? If it had some longer travel/offroad suspension on it with knobbies, that'd be awesome. But how many times do you think he bottoms it out on the nose fairing going off road? And, clip-ons are a bit gutsy for off road, which is what those knobbies are designed for.


But, I still think it's cool

I read the article and its actually his track bike and he just decided to throw knobbies on it, raised it and softened the suspension. I feel it would be to heavy and way to much power to really enjoy the terrain but hey when you can afford it why not.

Surely the beauty is in the eye of the beholder and I can appreciate the workmanship and the technical innovations of if but cmon that thing is an eyesore... Should even have put a hi-rise muffler on it to compensate for that washboard tail, and that seat would have cost him 30 bucks to be professionally upholstered... sharp edges on the rear of the tank between your legs... yeah, good luck riding it, at least you can't hear people laughing from those pipes... I got a pait of those fog lights on the garage shelf, cost me 19,90, and if you are able to fabricate that kind of a front end why oh why is that light hung from a stip of sheet metal found from the floor behind the cutter...
