          Bet it handles like poo with those crap tires on it, nice front brake lines too.... I'd pass.

            That paint scheme really looks good on that 550. Sure, there are a few things I'd look into but mostly, very nice indeed.

              Love it but I also am infatuated with vintage fairings.

                  I'm not crazy about exhaust tape. It looks sloppy, especially up close. B+

                    I like it, but prefer more cc.
                    I was just thinking yesterday of adding clipons and dropping the front end of my GS1100G, the same way.

                        I love the style. As said, some of the mechanics could have had more attention to detail.
