On eBay right now. Very nicely done.

i wonder if it's the same guy outta ny(?) who built and sold this.

i like 'em both!

Same rear brake cover. Good eye, I do think it might be the same guy.

Yea I saw that also. I saw a thread some place that showed step by step how to do that. Might have been the guy that did it that pasted it. If I can remember where I saw it I will post a link. Both are VERY nice bikes!

The Wasp 650 Yam

...reminds me, I saw one on the salt at Speedweek..
Wasp sidecar 650..offroad, nice clean bike with 3.. YES.. THREE..

Kimtab snowflake MAGnesium wheels..

Whels did have dings as it was run offroad and raced, but man did they look nice in gold on a yellow bike.. guy found it sitting rough in a yard.. paid 200.00 for it..

Any info on the silver 400?

That red cb750 does look like it's got some Benji stuff on it. It also looks like he lowered the front fender to hug the tire closer without losing the stock look. I like that kind of stuff.

OK saw this on craigslist and had to post it.

Harley Sportster xl1200

http://www.kodakgallery.com/ShareLanding.action?c=5uv3diap.apxki50t&x=0&y=iop6df&localeid=en_US

wouldn't let me copy or save the pics so the link is all I have.

Beans · « **Reply #2761 on:** August 20, 2009, 10:55:48 pm »

and another.

I spend way to much time on craigslist.

Ducati Monster S2R 1000 Custom Cafe Racer

love the dry clutch setup.

Cant see your pics BEAN.
I like this one. its on ebay. But with all the effort of putting on modern suspension you'd think they could put a little more time into the seat and exhaust. This bike would look great with a nice seat and some clean pipes. That wrapping on pipes makes me think of a mummies bandages.

Nice bike, are those exhaust tips from a Mower? And no speedo or tach.. hum... Its up to 1.6k so wonder if he will make his money back.. Still I like the idea, wonder how it sounds..

I like the ingenuity and the looks but I wonder if the bike is heavier now. All that work only to have a stock engine seems kind of unbalanced to me. That engine should have built for racing to match the time/money spent on the suspension IMO.

Yea that's a really good point. If the engine is stock, there is probably a bit more weight on it now and its not like it was a 550 or 750 or something to begin with. hum....I still would like to see it in action.

Aluminum triple clamps, aluminum swingarm, aluminum wheels, no rear frame carriage, no airfilter side cover combos, no stock exhaust, no center stand, no heavy seat.

I'd be willing to bet that bike weighs less than stock.

I've seen this bike in person. Those pics don't even begin to reveal attention to detail and hand made parts that went into it. The brings it to the monthly bikefiremoto event sometimes.

Zaipai · « **Reply #2772 on:** August 22, 2009, 08:34:27 pm »

You can just tell by looking at it no detail was too small to over look. Sure hope I get to see it in person some day.

Ecosse · « **Reply #2773 on:** August 22, 2009, 08:40:56 pm »

dump that fire extinguisher off the back though.

btw rat' you're a lucky dog.

Ecosse · « **Reply #2774 on:** August 22, 2009, 08:45:23 pm »

just had to post this.

something a bit more manageable.
