OH MY GOD!!!!! I really, really want to take this for a ride!
This brings back memories of my old X6 half miler. Cut my youthful riding teeth on light switch power band 2 stroke hand grenades.
For some reason I can faintly smell Castrol R or is that the scent of Blendzall......

That's awesome. Big thumbs up for making it look more like a racebike and less like a "custom build," with all the shiny billet bling hanging off it.

That's a shame!

Shows you that motorcycles are dangerous no matter how experienced you are.

My motto is expect the unexpected.

Still,

Could be a case of chrome poisoning.

I prefer polishing !

Read into that what you will , If I posted that on the org site it would garner some very lewd comments I'm sure.

No matter what, still a shame to see that happening.

I can't get excited about most of his work, but the two stroke racer I like.

Too bad about the accident. Pretty dumb.
