    Please Do Not Try This At Home..

    Now I was a crazy young buck way back when I had my 1980 XS11 Special, but I was never this crazy....

      Having "the twins" that close to metal moving 10k rpm with nothing to protect them would make me a tad squeamish.

        Helping the differently enabled.

        Before PC they were called midgets or dwarfs but now they are "little people"
        Thing is, if you are only 3 foot tall there's no way you can ride a normal-sized bike so what ya gonna do? Before some clever fellow downsized that 1100 all you could mebbe drive is a 50cc scooter. Standing up. And you beggars mock the thing. For shame!

            I'm knocking it...I noticed that the operator is no little person...this is such a waste IMOThere is nothing practical abt this bike...why its even more dangerous than a normal bike setup...who the heck want their family jewels jammed up against a hot motor and carb intakes?Your reasoning that a little person would benefit from riding something this small...how many little ppl have you ever seen riding bikes this small?I see alot of kids on these...

              The big upside being overlooked here is that has to be the easiest XS motor to work on...ever.
              I know this, because Tyler knows this.

                wow

                did you see how fast that thing was, and the best part was the exhaust !! It sent shivers down my spine, I know you secretly want to ride it
