That does look very good, Dave.

About the only obvious flaw is using standard 650 brakes, but I presume he'll upgrade thme and possibly forks later.

Definately a bit of a street sleeper. Nice

Stock front end and shock? You'd have to be a complete f*cktard to think that a good idea.

I dunno, could be interesting I guess the owner has the engine sorted out now, and can then move onto upgrading the suspension. It will probably handle just as bad as a 1980's muslce bike

now thats manly

Less work than my TL version.

Wish they had been around when I started it.

The guy's an engineering retard.

ste what's the significant difference between the SV and TL motors? I thought they were built on the same cases?

Sorry actually wrong guy, the OP in that thread not the feller who posted up with this bike after all the fuss.

OP said he was going to make some plates out of Ti, "cos it's like the strongest thing in the world like, innit" then shouted down someone who pointed out that he was talking b*llocks and raised some concerns calling him a "hater". Anyone who uses that term on an internet forum is automatically relegated in my mind to a dribbling retard that eats their own poo.
