Re: interesting bikes found randomly..
It's a YPVS 350, with what looks like an RGV250 swingarm, I don't know what the forks and wheels are from, the fairing is at an upwards angle, I know I'm biased, but I don't see how that looks better than a standard YPVS

I don't think it's an RGV arm but it does look like one if it was mirrored. The right side on the RGV was banana'd.

That's true, the early ones weren't braced, the later ones as you said had the banana arm and the bracing on the other side.ChrisW wrote: ↑Fri Dec 23, 2022 9:57 amVJ21 Real Sprinter? Must have been braced then. The tricksters.

Some of the early AMA superbike Kawasakis ran an oil cooler like that.

I think Weeksy does not GAS what other people do to their bikes, he just likes his own bikes very clean ! ?

Re: interesting bikes found randomly..
Just popped up on the MT09 page. TBH it looks like they've just fitted a MX front mudguard and replaced the headlight with number board and of course added some trail tyres.
