OUCH! They are a bloody nightmare when that happens. We had a customer mid-summer this year with a Ducati 748 in mint condition, untill his stand snapped clean in half as he was getting on it, needless to say the bike required nearly £1500 spent on it afterwards. Nice to see the forums finally been sorted out. You could have solved it easily but hey, no matter now. Great to be back on here and nice to talk with you guys again. :D

Wonky! It's good to see you back. Your wisdom and experience were much missed during your absence.

I'll have you know that I ordered Streetfighters Magazine from all the way across the pond just to see your Super-Baggy, and I've never heard the end of it from my wife. You Brits really know how to "accessorize" your bikes!

Seriously, though, you did a great job, and I'm glad you're back so I could congratulate you.

LOL! Awesome, glad you liked it and thanks for the support from everyone. The STMZ was blessed with excellent reviews, we all did a great job getting an otherwise "mocked" machine to raise eye-brows for the right reasons i think! :-D Great to be back on here now the nasties are gone!!!!

WONKY!!!
dude, nice to see your smiling letters again! :-D Just down right love the machine! Did it finally get in a mag? It was passed around that it would be, but here in the US I guess it never surfaced. Too bad. Anyway nice to see you alive and well!!

hey dude, yep, the bike was featured in MCN, goto: http://www.motorcyclenews.com/MCN/News/newsresults/mcn/2007/May/may-1-to-may-6/may0207mzpicturegallery/ this is the UK's weekly national Motorcycle Newspaper...it had a great review!

It was also featured in UK's Streetfighter mag and was given 4 pages and rated one of the fastest "Street" Supermotos in the UK. The review was fantastic and Streetfighter aren't shy to say if something is not good, so a great end to the project for 2007. I will scan and post the review on our website for you to download as soon as i get 5 minutes. Tings have been crazy the past few months and i haven't had time to do much at all.

Great to be back on here and chatting with you guys! :-D
