Make that a fully custom "street tracker".  They are like street legal flat trackers.  

That would be the bomb.  

How fast is it going to be?

it's fast enough to scare the shaZam! outta me :)  I was thinking "retro motard" and riding it as a stunt bike

I thought you needed a chain for it to ride, Dave?

Use that spare GS frame...make a flat tracker out of that 2 smoker combo!!!

Street trackers are way cooler than cafe racers, IMHO.

Davipu, you tellin' me that those photos don't get you inspired at all to be the first kid on your block with one?  All you would need is some street tires, new front fender, new rear seat/tailsection/light, a little rectangular headlight, and some paint. . .

Uber cool.   How about the Mert Lawmill street tracker?  You guys seen that one (red and silver Harley) he is making?

No way, it's gotta be a round headlight. Old school! Do the "Retro Motard"! Doo iitt!! And, if you do, then you can do the square headlamp.

The Motorcycle Fashion God has spoken.

Oh, Ye of the Purple Bone Stock GS!  Lead Davipu not astray from motorcycle fashion, but lead him to the temptation of the ultra cool street tracker and cast down your motard dreams!

It's not bone stock, it's lightly massaged (I almost got my licence for being a massage therapist but I had to pull out...did I mention that I was in the Navy? Get it? Pulled out...). Should I delete this post for bad taste? Of course, if anybody replies, it will cement this post. pm me...please.

so I went out and rode the gs today, stoped by the free bar and was shooting the shaZam! with my uncle, according to him there is a mystery rd400 sitting in a barn someware that is up for grabs if I can find it.  so the only bad thing is the ya-ma-who? on the tank.  but I guess I can put a S on it or something.  side question. if I wanted to start ice racing, whare do I need to go and who do I need to talk to?

Ice racing...Minnesota is great, tons of lakes, used to have the temps for it.  Probably have to hit up somewhere above the border now with the global warming wave we've been riding up here recently.

RD's are sick!!
