Saw this on eBay this evening. Pretty scary, you wouldn't catch me off road on that monster. Come to think of it you wouldn't catch me on that bike anywhere. I wish there was a better picture of the rear suspension.

And no front brake, so I don't know about where it is, but I suspect that in most states it's not actually street legal like they state it is since every state I know of requires front brakes on street legal bikes. But besides, I wouldn't want to ride a dual sport without a front brake.Cy

You won't get very far off road without an air filter on that contraption.

I'm thinking a little more aggressive tread would be desired for offroad use
He says it comes with the front brake parts at least..
It's too new in Ohio, and I think most places, to be without turn signals.82J · 81SH · 79SF Fire Damage · 78E · 79F Parts Bike · 04 Buell Blast
