Whats up with the braided transparent water lines up front? They look like they are being used as brake lines. Any ideas?

Those go to the sheared reservoir.
It was the only clear line I could find that would hold up to the brake fluid.

You guys inspired alot of what is about to come, so i guess ill post it here too.So as im awaiting the return of my engine for my 550, I finally got the T shirt shop up and running. These are the first samples as im still working on color options and production numbers. These are simple graphics as the whole "affliction" style thing is well not appealing to me. There is a mix of my hand drawn graphics and some photo style graphics coming. These are hand screened so I will keep production fairly low.Ill keep you guys posted.
Cheers!
johnsy
p.s. This is inspired by a pic from member "Industrial Cafe" thanks for all of your photo submissions. keep em coming.

Rad and fans...

Johnsy.. take your product pitch elsewhere Since you have a thread for these shirts in the project section is it possible to keep your product talk there since you lack the ability to post pics of bikes? ::)

Showed up on BikeExif a couple days ago - Aprilia engine, custom everything else
http://www.taimoshancycleworks.com/taimoshan%20info.html
http://www.bikeexif.com/aprilia-rsv-taimoshan




It's pretty  ;D

PS: Carbon Fiber Oil In Frame
http://www.taimoshancycleworks.com/carbon%20frames.html


Which pretty much marks them as insane

Frame Statistics:
Weight:  Carbon Mono-shock frame, target weight  3.5 kgs  ( original steel frame 16 kgs )
Weight: Carbon Bobber frame target weight 3 kgs
Head angle: Carbon Frame 25 deg rake. ( original frame 28 deg )
Custom matching carbon unit pro link swingarm target weight 1.5 kgs ( original 4kgs )
Frame will fit T120 650cc & T140 750cc twins
Frame oil Capacity approx 6 litre, original is about 4 litres

It is estimated that “Bonnie Lass” with an Alloy tank and race seat, carbon frame & matching carbon swingarm, she will weigh in at well under 150kgs down from about 210 kgs.

Beautiful Bomber.  Only thing I'd change is black instead of chrome on those front brake holes.
