that looks even better than the brazilan kit. I wonder how hard it's to fit the ducati kit on there

How tall is that guy, anyway? The bike looks tiny.

Turd Ferguson · August 15, 2006, 06:25:03 AM

I sure hope I don't dwarf my GS like that guy does...

I thought the same thing, but if you notice, the pegs have been moved quite a distance from stock. That'll create the illusion of him being bigger cause of the riding position

That guy is still huge, look how far over the tank he is and he isnt even tucked.

He's huge! If he hunched over any more his elbows would be lower than his knees. Those Woodcrafts really move his legs out of the cutouts on the tank.

The bike does look really well done, though.

Yeah.... That's a big guy. He must be around aaronstj's size...

A guy (Zeec, he's posted on this board) down the road from me (ok, a town or two over) bought it a year or so ago, then sold it to Fakehatch. I think both had the intention of racing it, but never got around to it. I'm not sure who is riding it in the photo though... my guess would be Zeec. Never met him, so I wouldn't know his dimensions

There may be more info/history on the bike somewhere at mnsbr.com; I know it's been posted for sale there before

coll0412 · August 15, 2006, 04:04:12 PM

Yeah and only like $1100(at least on MNSBR), cheap way to start racing

Jesus, I'm 6'0", do I look like that on the GS? I'm only 175. Really light for my height.

Turd Ferguson · August 15, 2006, 07:28:23 PM

Turd is 6'0" and weighs 137 lbs baby! Go bicycling!

-Turd.

CirclesCenter · August 15, 2006, 07:45:08 PM

I move appliances and I'm southern Italian. For my build 175 is incredibly light.

BTW: that's a big Turd

Basically how this guy looks on that bike is how I have been described to look on the GS. I dont mind though because I use it as everyday transport, it is actually more comfortable than my old RF, and I have a blast on it. BTW I'm 6-4 225. Back to the original topic, that is one heck of a deal. I wouldn't mind picking it up if I was a little closer.

The real question should be "I wonder how many arms and legs i'd have to sell to get a ducati fairing"
