This M2 gives me the wood. Don’t know why.

Oil tank looks a bit obtrusive.
hardly davidsome

Might sound cautious, but as a 44yr old family man with four kids to raise, I don’t push too hard or lean all that much anyway.

I just cruise and enjoy the low end torque every now and then.

I kinda dug it when I first saw it back in 2005 at the Smoke Out.

I really dig the footpegs, however:

NICE PEGS

Buy Roast do you mean have a good chuckle
at your expense?

I can`t believe you didn't install forward controls as long as you were modifying, might as well make it totally uncomfortable while you are at it

Mtjm2, yeah, but if I was truly worried about it, I wouldn’t have posted. To each his own.

1313 thanks for posting. I would’ve never seen the foot peg. I love it.

Not my cup of tea to be sure, but if you love it, then it's all good.

I don't know, there's a couple "cult" bikes out there I'd like to do some bad things to. As long as you're enjoying it, and perfectly good bikes aren't just being hacked up beyond repair, I can't complain.

Oldfartin, if you can hit that spout on the fly, you're probably famous for more than just riding skills.


To the forum: Please do not interpret this jest as a desire to continue this direction of topic. I might have already crossed the line of decency here.

LOL at oldfartin’s “special skill set”.

Found another that I like a lot more. The bars, flyscreen / fender delete, and that seat...
