You are going to a lot of work there and its not adding anything to the look of the bike, or making it lighter, or giving it more power. So seems pointless.

It is done so I can own a Kenny Roberts tribute/replica bike. It just happens it started life as an exup. Perhaps you might think it's pointless but it's my bike. Maybe this is the wrong forum for this bike.

Not at all. Each to their own and all that. Wouldn't do for us all to like the same thing, it'd be a very dull place

Personally I like the idea of what you're doing but wouldn't do it to my own bike as I like the way they look from the factory hence why I try to alter mine without changing it (if you can understand what I mean)


Keep up the good work I say :cool:

Ignore the knockers and carry on doing what you're doing. Its you're choice.

What Stig is trying to say is, when his bike came out of the factory it was covered in dust, and it still is today. :lol: :lol: :p

I'll be going down in the black book for the that. In fact I bet the black book is dusty too. It hasn't been out for a while. :D

Bit of advice. Buy a good bed and a good pair of shoes, because if you aren't in one you'll be in the other.
