I agree on the rake, love it anyway... Also real brakes up front, usd fork, and wire wheels... Then it'd be perfect.

Agree on the rake. My first thought was I hope it steers better than it looks like it should.

There are only two things I like about this bike:
The tail piece, and the tail piece.
The rake, coupled with the, what, 350mm+ rear tire?, = sucks ass in turns. Fuck that.
That seat cover looks like it was salvaged from an easy chair, in an Indonesian whore house.

Also real brakes up front,
They said the 'brakes are from Buell', that I would assume means perimeter brakes, which work just fine.
(though I agree about the wire wheels)

Didn't read it and missed it in the pic... I see now that they used the newer Buell brakes with the slotted rotors..m. OSP approves.

That tail piece even looks like it needs some attention. I like the lack of mirrors - whatever is behind you doesn't matter. Though, with that tank who needs mirrors?
Brakes? They might be better off throwing an anchor out of a backpack rather than using those brakes.

They had that for about 25 years. Then they shut it down.
Edit: They also tried it with the Xr1200. How many of those do you see around? I've seen exactly zero on the road, and we have a pretty large Harley following in NS.

Who wouldn't want an $18,000 sport bike, that weighs 700 pounds?
Sign me up!
Not.

There's a guy here at work who has one... rides it all the time... looks fucking killer.
