that is pretty cool looking, bet that log type intake has pretty poor fuel distribution though.

looks like a 650 to me, at least from the valve adjustment covers, but what's the L shaped thing coming out from behind the right foot peg?

that's what I thought. If it is a kickstarter, then it's not a 650. ;)

I think the L shaped thing is the "heely brake pedal" whatever that is! it appears to be connected to the rear drum

Hunt him down and drag him out into the street for a good old fashioned kicking I say! ;D
How dare he ruin a CB650SC like that?
I'd say it would be one of the most dangerous bikes on the road...to the rider anyway!
Are you guys nuts in the states!
Surely that can't be road legal? >:(

LOVE that hard tail setup...that's freaken awesome...put a comfier seat on it and i'd ride the hell outta it.

If i was still gonna do a hard tail 750 build. I would copy a LOT of stuff from that bike. Front end, hard tail style, tank...even the exhaust.
