Looks like the bike Downtown Harley is Seattle built in memory of Russ Tom. The only thing missing are the decals and numbers, and the DHD bike had a full body kit. but the paintjob is the same. Although, the DHD bike had a custom exhaust that ran up the side like metric sportbikes with the muffler along side the rear section.

when I first saw those black/orange VR1000's many years ago, I thought, now that's a wicked cool paint treatment.

I've just decided- if and when I ever re-colour my 9r, that's what it's gonna be!!

thanks for posting the pics!!

Powerful torque. Exciting power.
The precise reaction acting in concert, the difficult corner it is, also in the can tongue
The male of the winding which it clears.
The vivid new color fascinates.



The splash shivering runs to the inner part of the earth smoke which is lifted,
There is no either opening of the minute dust in the rear form
Exciting & nimble real American sport.
The flat seat which makes nimble cornering possible,
Furthermore the private suspension which makes the pliant movement possible.
Depending on the equipment which it is used exclusively is designed in order to enjoy all roads avariciously,
Regarding some road surface the running which is sharp is produced.

The new world, adventure sport was opened up.
Anew by the fact that standard it equips the low seat actively
You can act.



You show. It can charm.
Daring street fighter.

Translucent spirit 悍 expression pulls first.
The light footwork makes one groan.
The city the appearance which makes [motokurotsusa] represent which runs
Free running.
The alleyway reverse side nimble XB9SX which runs about daringly.
The bearing surface of raising pulls lightness and can stand.
