    Good boy Fimp, you obviously recognise a bargain when you see one, so spill, what are you gunna do with it? If you want my opinion (or even if you don't) I reckon you should use it as a part time trackbike, part time stunt practice bike. []

    Apparently the RG is a good supermono base I've been told Fimp, theres one idea.
    I have a 17 x 3.50 Suzuki rear end I bought by mistake if you are interested.

    It's about on par with a GS500.

    I think thats the first, and possibly the last time I'll ever see a GS500 being compared seriously to a B-King.......

    oh, another thing i was pondering


    what are the legalities with fitting a single-seat rear on something like this?
    its not like i would want 2 people on it anyways, and it'll mainly be a learner bike

    so do i have to get it re-complied or something?

    i get away with it on the tiller cos i have the standard back-end
    but frankly i cant be bothered sorting out a stock one for this!

    would it have to be engineered you think?

    in qld you just have to disable the ability to have a pillion on it (remove foot pegs and either cut off the pillion seat or fit a permanent cowl) and get a compliance plate from a certified mechanic (not engineer). then take the bike to department of transport and you get them to check it out (they dont really care that much as long as you have the plate) - cheaper rego.

    I'm doing it with the 12r but i have a mechanic mate who can do it. not sure about down south tho.

    I had the headlight on my WR smashed and the originals are too much of a
    rip-off so i got one of those diamonds....ive never used
    them before or really liked them in the past but I know see the ease of
    them!!!!! easy as fuck and cheap!
