It has a whole bunch of tasteful mods done to it.

2800 miles.

This is a lot of fun to ride. :smt045

What does it need? Flush mount turn signals and ride it a bit.

Thank you for the compliments :smt006

Removed the stock turn signals and installed proton fronts and motodynamic integrated rear. Same parts as on RZ500 cuz they work good :smt045

Yesterday was a very nice November day so a little putt around Livermore was in order. :smt047

Today it's raining. This is the third November rain we have had. It's just not fair to have this much rain come down in one month in Komifornia :smt022

So what to do??? Don't care to watch football unless the niners are doing good (not this year). So...post pics on the www


At home

Nice bike. There was a really cool sales poster for this one, shot at a race track with one of KR's TZ's.
