soupBDC Posted February 22, 2007 Share Posted February 22, 2007 Re: motorbikes! Unless someone comes out with a review saying this bike is total garbage. I may buy it when it drops so very soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Some1 Posted March 5, 2007 Share Posted March 5, 2007 Re: motorbikes! This is what I am turning my SV into since I cant afford to buy another bike. Spoked rims Woodcraft Clip ons to get a more sporty stance I cant figureo out what exhaust this is prolly custom. I want one just like it except with two cans on the right side. Vintage MotoGP style... A new pair of rear sets Seat Cowl Undertail Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Some1 Posted March 5, 2007 Share Posted March 5, 2007 Re: motorbikes! I aint never been had seen'd this befoe... I love the old cafe racer/look of the old racer bodies I just love that era of racing. Alright so check it I have been looking into taking my SV throwing some Spoked rims on the beast, possibly getting one of my friends to fabricate a custom motoGP style exhaust Dual cans on the right side (pending there isnt a huge loss a ton of weight added), Woodcraft clip ons, and rear sets. I am going after this look. Its right up my alley. (p.s. if you have any other pics of this bike please show me) So I am looking around at things today and I find this... (removable cowl for passenger and led brake light) http://www.britnett-carver.co.uk/twinshack/ Some english distributor but the plastics are made by some French Company POLY 26 http://www.poly26.com/ So I start checking around on their site and find some more things that I like... What do you guys think? I think I like it and might do this pending I can find someone in the states/somebody who speaks english to sell it to me... I think I am gonna get the tail and the half fairing version for my bike... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

imported_splint2 Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 Re: motorbikes! don't bother with a 125 unless you can find a good deal on a used one. 4 strokes are taking over, and it doesn't look like they are turning back. the new 250F's are killer, unless you really want to destroy, then the 450F's are what you're looking for.

RumPuncher Posted March 6, 2007 Author Share Posted March 6, 2007 Re: motorbikes! writing 'cafe racer' down the side is kind of lame. What's the point? That's like writing 'pick-up truck' on the side of a.... pick-up truck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dirty_habiT Posted March 8, 2007 Share Posted March 8, 2007 Re: motorbikes! My bike needs a new head gasket and the head machined... new piston rings and a valve job and I should be running good again. I am going to be "converting" it into a "street fighter".

Some1 Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 Re: motorbikes! all you R1 riders... Does a inline 4 1000 make sense as a street bike? I mean I ride winding backroads not much of a highway straight line riding type person. I dont go to the track. At least havent yet. I just dont want to be in second gear the whole time flying through these turns. Everyone keeps telling me there are huge differences between V's and inline 4's. I have read everything know the differences but havent riden one to get a preference... I sold my SV650 I want a 1000. All the 1000 V-twins are either to much to service and get parts for. TL1000's bad reviews. SV1000's not sporty enough for me Ducati's to expensive to service, have to service too much Triumph's parts are to expensive BMW $12k for R1200S!? I would be drooling... Aprilia expensive to service aswell... God now all my friends have bikes I am regretting selling mine... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
