gsrick, thanks for your reply. Thanks for the link to the video, sadly this one i have has the rear already hacked up so i ordered the tcbros universal. I stripped it down to the frame over the weekend to clean it up, 34 years of splicing into the wiring, broken grounds, ect. I need to replace the brake lines, wheel bearings, pads, rebuild the carb and replace the tank. This bike has had years of jimmy rigged repairs so im starting from the ground up.

I wouldn't own a hardtail myself. But, that particular bike would look better as a hardtail. Could be fun for some short rides.https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B9zH8w8Civs8ejBJWjdvYi1LNTg&resourcekey=0-hlJp0Yc4K_VN9g7Jyy4KQg&authuser=fussbucket_1%40msn.com&usp=drive_fs

I had a pic of a soft tail with a beautiful woman on it. It surely would have helped redirect the daggers (ribbing) going on.

Darn, with so many daily riders it's hard to decide which one to jump on next.;)

This dislike of your style bike is tripping me out. If I rode a bike like that, it would definitely be for short rides. I'd crash a party like those Riders did in "Wierd Science" and wreck some wood floors! Lol
Back to your bike...I'm kinda starting to like it but you'd have to "doll it up" a bit and put a spring and some cushion on that seat. Heck, I'm not riding it...What do I care? Make something of it and start a thread with "disclaimer" in the title: Negative Responses Not Required".

Seriously...I would ride it with a positive intent. If it didn't agree with my ergonomics (or whatever it's called-- the riding position) then I would not own it for long.Last edited by GSXR7ED; 12-27-2016, 06:41 PM.GS750TZ V&H/4-1, Progressive Shocks, Rebuilt MC/braided line, Tarozzi Stabilizer[Seq#2312]

LOL, I don't think that any of my gay friends would be caught dead on that. Pretty sure they'd label it "half-blind hetero".'20 Ducati Multistrada 1260S, '93 Ducati 750SS, '01 SV650S, '07 DL650, '01 DR-Z400S, '80 GS1000S, '85 RZ350

The one I posted was cleaned up because I spray painted the model's bum with orange paint...your joke referenced it. The non-cleaned up one would be the one you could see her thong. That's the one Grimly would enjoy.

I grew up in the 80s and used it once I got bold from saying, "sissy" to my neighborhood friends.
