RideWithStyles Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 somebodys terrible work of a track bike.... the worst rusted chain ive seen in a long time. terrible rattle can paint jobs and a clutch lever that has been DIY cut and ground to a mega short lever that is already touching the bar without any assistants. missing panels. its definately been down the mac on its left side as the panels, the gear lever, pegs show... heavens what the right side looks like?

rob m Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 This is how good it could look, like my old ST1050. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S-Westerly Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 Didn't know we were critiquing its condition just its general shape. I'd not argue about it being a piss poor example of the breed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fender1515 Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 Not sure it's been used for track days, the rear tyre doesnt look like its been working very hard! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RideWithStyles Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 (edited) mirrors, indicators, panels, reg plate purposely removed ( or broken off from the crash and then removed?), cracked, bodged repair and worn panels, bent gear lever, worn points on the pillion pegs mount, new clip on weights, too clean foot peg and rubber, sus of a very clean metal point ( the original only point on it ) where a crash bobbin would sit previously hint at it. tyres could of been changed or they are the same ones, maybe they were just as good as there paint job and never got past the insight lap?

Fozzie Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 Never been a fan of these personally, I always thought they needed a bit more unique styling as it always looked like it was from the Honda VFR family, which had pointier looks. The engine could have done with about 20bhp more as well. Weirdly though, I loved the Tiger 1050, which has the same engine. That bike could do with a good stripping back that's for sure though. Hopefully it gets someone who treats it as a labour of love! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RideWithStyles Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 i had the latish daytona 955i, great engine didnt need more power for the road. track....maybe? but i just treated it more like a ducati and just used the stomping torque. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
