His wife said it looked too much like a bug when it was Blue. So we did this to it

He rode it like this for a few months then his wife got cancer, She died shortly after and he sold off all the bike stuff to pay for the medical bills.

He still comes out on weekdays to blast the Busa around.

we did polish the frame just before he sold it. I have pics of it somewhere.

Nice work. I liked it when it was blue with the black tail. Looked tough.

[KATO ZX7]

Cancers a bitch !!

Looks alot better with the diferent tail on it, that cafe style in the first pics looked wrong [:O]

How many times did he cop a hot spot on de leg with the exhuast hangin out the side??

Besides all of my two cents worth..........nice bike :D

None that I know of. Hes 6'8" and pretty loose.

[KATO ZX7]

6'8" !!?? He'd have to be loose (im guessing you mean 'foldable'),

or he's knees would give him too much wind drag :D

[Fight_fan]

I like the idea of the cafe racer style tail but it jst didnt quite work IMO! Looked way better when it was red with the black wheels... My 2c!

^^^^^^^What <s>s</s>he :D said

[RussVC]

Yeah I like the Red/Black wheeled version too but what I noticed in all the pics is he didn't like rear brakes!
