That's a lot of exhaust/silencing/brakes for a 50cc engine. :D

You can be all modern now and get an electron powered one. :thumbup:

Watched a Youtube video last night of a Japanese motorcycle show, the whole video just showed
Z900 conversions. Seems there is a whole after market scene over there making Z900'S look like
older models.

Sorry, crappy pics. RG250 Wolf with a Katana (assuming 400) top fairing. I like it.

EDIT:

Found an old ad for it...

Had an '86 back in the day, that was last seen being loaded for transport to the local cop shop after some questionable behavior. Then it somehow *disappeared*

Stolen from a Friendface group.

1989 VJ21 RGV250, reckons it weighs 124kg with all liquids.

I think it's a very pretty motorcycle.
