    I like the look and overall execution of it. Whether it will get his asking price, I don't know, but it's a far cry from the usual CL crapheaps we see.

      It might be stupid fast, but it looks so ... incomplete.

        Why wouldn't he just turn the oil cooler upside down? Seems bass-ackwards.

          Very incomplete... I would have to keep going to make it look like a classic GS. I'll bet it is stupid fast indeed.....

            So the oil doesn't drain back when it is turned off? I just looked at my Bandit and indeed the hoses attach to the bottom, but the factory cooler might have a check valve....

                    Exhaust, fenders, side covers, rear lights, probably a few other things, too.

                        I might have done worse if I had my way...my last Kawi H-2 wanted a new home in a modern aluminum box frame...never found one when a guy offered enough to make her a new home elsewhere - but I wanted to do a motor transplant.

                          I just had to post this. Not just for the visual effects of how to make a piece of schiit, but for the asking price for the said piece of schiit!!!

                          I would rather trust my bike to a "QUACK" that KNOWS how to fix it rather than a book worm that THINKS HE KNOWS how to fix it.

                            Yes but it's a Trimaha so that makes it much more valuable.

                              If that is a real old time tractor seat, it's worth more then the bike.
