The equalizing cross tubes are interesting. Cool faring also.

I think we should all chip in and buy 754 a camera ( or what ever else he needs) in order to post pics of the bikes he's always talking about............  ;D

I have a digital camera, last used about 3 years ago.

I started using film again this year, but I do get discs made when I get them developed.( not that I know how to view anything off a disc)

I have actually used a printer a few times....


I am not seeing the problem here (re my last post), if someone on the phone or in conversation said.. check out Flloont Arntney .com or Zudd Dartz.com... I would simply make a note of it and look it up online later..


That being said, I went to the Vancouver MC show on Sunday without a camera.. saw  only 1 bike I really liked, but it looks like every other XR 750.. my buddy did take pics though..

 Think he got a few pics of the Amsoil Bag Hotties, hamming it up with the Motor cop and his Beemer. :o... No he did not put handcuffs on them.. but they did ask him...

There was a video looping there of helicopter footage they took of bikes running from them, scary riding in that one..

I checked the site 754 no problem.  ;D But include me among the spoiled by provided images group. Mods are likely glad you're not contributing to the server overload. That's my job. ;)

Can't say I like this bike although I do like the board tracker aesthetic. What I do like most is the craftsmanship... and especially that engine!

I went over a few things with him.

He designed it so that other  top ends can be made to fit.

He said there seems to be a demand for them, and they wont be real cheap. I mentioned that getting DoT approval (or similar) will be the tough part. He said he is not that worried, as most of the interested parties, did not seem interested in  riding them down the road.. :o

Pit(airstrip) Toys for Big Wallet Boys...


must admit, itxudes a much tougher image than some pit vehicles...



He realizes that if he does ride it that it will probably need another seat and a bit bigger rear tire..

I remember reading not too long ago the DOT was coming down on what I guess you'd call aftermarket (or cottage industry?) builders.

They seemed to focus on Jesse James as he is a big dog and easy target. Nothing like the gov. helping smaller business prosper.

I'd like to put this guy's twin into other applications. The imagination stirs...
