                front end

                All joking aside, you'd be surprised of how well these bikes handle with the new USD forks. I see he has the 4-pot calipers. My busa front end has 6-pot and can stop on a dime with a pinky pull....Even at 30-40 mph it is hard to try and turn the bars in just a bit...70+ MPH and you forget your on an 11

                  I've thought about doing the front end swap to a new one like the GSXR or R1 front, but it always seems that the price is too high for me just for the forks excluding the wheel and brakes......

                  dunno, maybe i dont know how to search very well.

                    front end parts

                    You can build an entire front end from Ebay for anywhere 300-500 bucks. If I were close enough to Ohio, I might just bid on it, half the work is done, and I wouldn't be needin' a rear brake for what I would do to it anyway....

                        how about

                        I've got a cool project on the hit list after I get my next build done this winter.....I'm thinking Yamaha Raptor rear end will be easy with the chaindrive swap with some 17" low profiles

                          A trike?

                          hmmmm

                          no really my taste but maybe.....


                          what would bee cool it a XS motor in a raptor on 17's and low pros.......or 17's can get a bit big and you will loose some acceleration because of the extra weight...how bout 14-15's.....

                            I am diggin it, Like the front end (minus the wheel, dont much care for three spoke wheels). Like chop said the rear needs some work still, like the rear fender setup though.

                              the light looks like an acerbis light. they have several better looking ones.
                              i was trying to find a cool one for my old radian. i found one from flyin cycle or something like that for 60 bucks. it was pretty neat. if you search the bike photo's thread i have a pic of the radian on there. it looks pretty cool.
