Title: Black powdercoated frame on naked bike pics
Post by: Dom on February 17, 2005, 08:21:18 PM
Not so sure how much I like it...  Like too much black or something...
I'm having 2nd thoughts about having my bike powdercoated now...I might go nuts and do it in green or something.

It's like it needs a little bling bling...maybe a gold chain... fat tire, aftermarket signals, CF chin fairing, dual headlights, bar-end mirrors, gixxer pegs, drag bars....ok so maybe it isn't so bad after all...  :mrgreen:

Here it's for sale on Ebay. (http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=4528332061&category=6027)

BTW...looks like the dumbass used Armor All on the seat... :lol: buyer beware....

Wouldn't that make it a japanese made tribute to a russian made reproduction of a wwII era soviet-manufactured motorcycle which was stolen from the germans? (they took apart a bmw in wwII and copied all the parts )

I don't think that I would actually buy one of these. I was really suprised to learn that they were being made. To each their own, I guess.
