Not sure why they felt the need to fit two exhaust systems...

Common aesthetic upgrade on these bikes... Not a massive performance gain, but pretty. (depending on opinion)

It looks long and high, apart from that it's nice, I'd fit shorter rwu forks and lower the back end to match, but that's my taste and hardly major changes.

Being 6 foot 1 maybe thats why i subconsciously like it more as i found original LC's very cramped. Its an RGV250 swingarm and GSXR400 USD forks plus one off yokes

Being 5'7" I'm probably the opposite (though riding Enduro bikes I couldn't touch the floor on never bothered me)
Surprised the forks are GSXR400, I had a GK76 and it was a compact low bike (it was also fantastic handling)

That chain looks pretty safe.

Perhaps not particularly unusual, or interesting for some but I absoloutely love this.

I will admit to having a soft spot for Gileras but I think this particular model was a lovely looker and it's my bike of choice for the Motogiro, which I will do, one day!

'Nearly' from me.

Belly pan is gash and exhaust looks like an anachronism, but other than that...

I've really warmed to this. I'd quite like a stripped back bike like that, but not with those vibey old tyres on.

A perfectly good 1979 BMW R100RS turned into this pile of shite and it gets featured in Pipeburn...
