You've got to watch your back in the SSDB, this is where the clever guys get bored with bike talk and make poo jokes.
I like my women a little big. Natural. Now, they shave this and wax that. It's not right. I love natural women. Big women. This trend in women has to go. Bulomia, anorexia. That's just wrong. You know what will cure that? My special sticky buns. One lick of my sticky buns and your appetite will come right back. ~ RIP Mr. Borgnine  01/24/1917 - 07/08/2012  :'(

I attached a lightweight fibreglass seat to an aluminum base to raise it 1" off the frame rails. The rear of the seat hooks to a frame member between the upper shock mounts and one bolt attaches the seat front/rear tank (400F tank- 1lb lighter)

The tach is early GSXR, fairing is a survivor from the seventies. Steering damper, fairing bracket seen here.





Reasets are a mish/mash of Honda/Suzuki/ homemade stuff. The problem with this is you have to duplicate them for spares in case of a crash. Should have thought about that before.  :P

Sorry guys there is more... later though.

That bike is extremely tough competition for BOTM. I remember looking at the build thread. Any other month the other bikes could be winners.  Nice work everyone!
