Certainly looks a bit weird, the camshafts look to be in the next postcode!

I am all for using the 'parts bin' to keep costs down but a water pump from a Jacuzzi?

The number plate holder and swinging arm offended me first, then the rest of the things jumped on me and kicked my eyes in. if I can bear to, i'll have another look later to see if there are any redeeming features! :wtf:

It always slightly offended me that flat tanks are never "quite" wide enough to safely support a pint glass.

I keep finding this one randomaly on the internet.
Its a very high budget version of what I'm tryin to achieve with my 900SS - this one has an 1100 Evo motor, Kevlar tank CF bodywork as well as high end forks, radial brembos, titaniium system etc. ONe of the things I like most about it is the paint job, brings out the best in the shape of the 900ss body.
