That bike has been an inspiration for me for years & was the bike that made me love the look of an underbraced swingarm.

this is my favorite.

1216 martek

goes with my theory on modified bikes that less is more.

Yup.... Streetfighters... the only type of bike that can be added to with an Angle Grinder :D

Have you ever been for a ride in the rain with no front gaurd? I never had one on my old Z years ago and got caught in a storm on the way home from work one day. Have you ever picked up a handful of sand on the ocean edge at the beach? Well imagine that in a super soaker gun aimed up the underside of your helmet for about and hour. I looked like some kind of Kentucky fried bellend when I got home.

Tony. You have just about every magazine ever. Surely you must have that picture (that I still can't find) of Robert Dunlop's Marvic single sider wheel collapsing in the 1994 TT?
