I know purists, it doesn't have clip-ons and bodywork. I made the top triple and bar clamps, front mount rads., front "fairing", bar end mirrors, etc. etc. I'm not a stuntdog- hate that shit. But I do more "sport touring" and daily riding than anything else. Its the coolest feeling bike I've ridden. Everything a monster wishes to be. I bought it wrecked from a kid a few months back for an awesome price and luckily he'd put crash bungs on it and the 12,000 motor and what not were totally intact!
I know Rigor. I want to do exactly that. But time is not something I have a whole lot of. The bike needs to be torn back down and the frame needs to be powder coated black and the motor high temp. painted black with brushed alum. accents, etc. Soon- it will all happen. The RC has taken up most of my free time as of late.
Hey I really like what you have done with that bike. Is that a XR500 or 600 motor? Either one of them can be BUILT to be wayy sic! I had both in dirt & flat track trim. The 500R can be built to rev to moon...sweet man...brings back memories of when thumpers "werent cool" LOVE IT!
The "supermono" donor was an XL600r enduro (AKA street legal) and I used the very forward part of the frame that holds the oil and VIN numbers so it is still registered as a XL! The RCSST runs at 180 and on occasion after riding it will come up a little past 200 if parked and idling. Every once in awhile I've noticed drips from the water pump tube which means of course it needs new H2O pump seals.
WOW! it worked!
This is me and my bike before we went our separate ways (for a year ) We will reunite soon as spring will be fast approaching! As you can see...I'm a Dallas Cowboys fan and as far as I consider it, there are two kinds of people in this world....people who love the cowboys....and people who......(I just can't bring myself to finish it) .
Before I get flamed for my chicken strips.....I'd just like to say that the bike was last ridden (before the pic) in the rain on the autobahn on the way to the in-laws for the storage. Not gonna go too fast in the rain .
When the picture was taken, I hadn't done much, but since I've been gone, I've accumulated a "sh!t load" of stuff to put on the bike......nothing special....just the normal mods you would expect from most of the guys here.
Anyway, y'all have a good weekend
Later
Thats what the black car is for also.
Make mine white with accessories.
My brother beats the living snot outta that poor S2000. It's seen quite a few trackdays @ Pocono and Beaver Run. Unfortunately, it's too small for me to drive safely. Little fukr revs to 9k and screams like a banshee.
