    Ya, it's one reason I dislike the recent Café, Rat and Bobber trend. Not so much that I dislike good examples, but I hate when they're just chopped up and fine examples of stock bikes are ruined.

    1980 GS1000GT (Daily rider with a 1983 1100G engine)
    1998 Honda ST1100 (Daily long distance rider)
    1982 GS850GLZ (Daily rider when the weather is crap)

    Darn, with so many daily riders it's hard to decide which one to jump on next.

      Yea I know! I don't mind a good Cafe "build". Bringing an old bike back from the dead and doing a proper cafe is one thing. But taking a perfectly good vintage bike and doing a crap job turning it into what's trendy half ass, really chaps my ass.

        Nobody will buy it, and he'll eventually scrap it or give it away for peanuts, and one more hits the skids. I'd rather burn my bikes than see them fall into the hands of *******s.

            Looks to be a front tire mounted on the rear. Anyone ever see a rear tire with a centerline groove?

                I've had the bike for a couple years now and it's been incredibly fun to ride. I haven't ridden it this year because I have a car now. It's been covered and in a car garage so the weather hasn't gotten to it. It needs a new battery and the front break is seized up so I can't transport it anywhere for now. I would just like to sell it to someone who could fix it up a bit. There is some aesthetic damage to the gas tank from gas being spilled on it. Other than those couple things it runs like a charm.





                What a deal!Only needs a battery,the "breaks" fixed and a paint job.Have a friend looking for a bike,going to recommend he look at this one.......NOT!

                                It's not for going UP. It's for coming down. Go on YouTube and look up Big Wheel Drifting. You'll get the idea. The ones I have seen were all gravity machines. That engine adds a whole new dimension to it.
