I guess he wants squirrels to know when he's braking.

Wholly holee. I dig it, besides the over abundance of speed holes.

The chambers by my un-educated eyes look very tame. Right?

Aesthetically cool though.

chambers look like jemcos. good pipes.

the speed holes are.. weak at best.

Yes that tail light is way out of place. Looks like it came off a trailer. No pics of the back to be sure. Guess it's easy to see if it's working.

I really like the looks of this bike though. @$3700.

I'd get rid of the boat trailer tail light and put some kind of a front fender on it, otherwise I like it. Don't care for the speed holes either but not the end of the world.

This gentleman has a boat load of exotic bikes. He posts fairly often on the WERA forums.
Thinning the herd.

I'm OK with the holes, but I just don't dig fork gaiters on street bikes. I grudgingly leave them on my dirty bikes because I recognize the utility, but I don't mind cleaning fork tubes now and then. So off with the gaiters and replace the taillight and it's a sweet ride!

[m in sc]

the gaitors are stock, they have external springs on top of the forks. (mine does too). I don't like them just for aesthetics though, like on cb750's. LAAAAME

[RDFL]

What gets me usually when you see those ugly gaiters on bike it has no or tiny ineffectual front fender.

[85RZwade]

Ugh. I can appreciate the no fender look from a flat track perspective, say for a show bike, but I want one on my stree-ridden bikes. Most of them have radiators that need some protection.

I'm fine with the holes in the chain guard, the holes in the heads are so so, that speedo mount looks awful though.

I have the same speedo in a different configuration.  Here is the mount I made for comparison.

That piece is perfect in every way...but it'll have to do  ;D

Looks pretty similar to mine.

Spooners with 2 places for head temp gauges instead of the 1 water would be great for AC's.
