    It runs and drives fine bike is really quick has some torque. it is a single cylinder DR-350 Engine it been gone through and rebuilt but then sat for a pretty long time. can give a little trouble starting becuase its not getting enough fuel during start. a bigger pilot jet would probably do it some good.

    Has basically brand new knobby tires bikes got a cool ratrod look
    I bought this frame from a guy at the saltflats in bonnevile then i put the engine in it aswell as changed out the neck tube and rake for the longer forks so the bike is chopped out a little.

    bike comes with a headlight and is wired for a headlight already. The wiring is there for brake/licence plate lights aswell.

      5 minutes of riding that junk, and you'll need a chiropractor living with you, and a Dr. to remove all the stones and debris from your back.

                Upside down handle bars, worthlessly cushioned seat, tiny gas tank, loud mufflerless pipes, and questionable build quality. Oh yea. That's definitely worth $2000! Bargain even.

                  I'd have to say, it isn't your cookie cutter variety, actually, can't believe I'm going to say it, very creative, if it had rear suspension, maybe a candidate for a Spielberg or Lucas prop. Very movie like....not everyday practical.

                    I can agree with the creativity and movie prop-like design. Oh and there is a monoshock on the rear, you can see it in the first picture (red spring)

With a standard type headlight/gas tank and a seat with a bit more padding, I think it would look much better. I wonder if you could put a gas tank in the area where the airbox used to be. I imagine you'd have to use a fuel pump if you did. I'm not sure you could approach the capacity of a standard gas tank that way, but it would be a better place to put the weight of the gas, as opposed to above the rear wheel. I wonder how effective that ram air is.

                            If you mean it runs rich at low speed, and lean at high speed? It is most efficient...

                              Are those rear shocks he's using as a "springer" front end? It looks like he made it from Home Depot angle iron, wtf.

                                Most of the pieces are there, I agree. What throws my meter out the window, is the futuristic shapes, thrown over a clasic upright twin, and the SPOKED WHEELS !
