Sold the SV on Thursday and picked this up on Friday. I've had a million things to do. So I've only put about 15 miles on it.

tried to figure out the links he posted, but the site says temporarily unavailable. So maybe he did it right, but the site is fucked up.

I am betting he got another gixxer for track.

specifically "If it was named the cotton ball, I wouldn't be as attracted to come ride it," motorcyclist Adam Powell said.

Love the color scheme. Agree with others that the exhaust has to go, it's a bit ugly. Eh, who the hell am I kidding, I ride a V-strom. :lol:

Thanks for the offer, but I'm about 175. There's not gonna be a lot of upgrades to this one. Just street riding

He won't be able to get the front end sag correct. Mine is almost backed all the way off and I'm 30lbs heavier w/o gear. BUT... with the BPF it is setup slightly different.

Make sure the guy knows how to setup the BPF stuff.
