    Ill catch hell for this!!!




    Meet El TORO
    Hopefully at least a couple of pics. made it here.
    Having six 11's gives me the freedom to do something ridiculous with this one
    Someone gave me a bike with a smoked engine and no title and I had to use the front end on something,so after taking some meaurements and comparing weights and stopping distances thought I would amuse myself.
    With slight mods. it fit.
    I had a different tank I was going to use and when 3 phase stopped by here on his way from the east rally he said it looks like it should have some horns!
    An idea was born!!!
    Tank wouldn't work so am still researching.
    Seat is from a rd200 with a cowhide to be fitted.
    Don't know if the pics show it but will have a wagging tail
    Still am trying to figure out how to make smoke come from the nostrils.
    Both headlights do work, one or both at the same time.
    Also notice gold teeth on skull.
    I don't plan on much long distance or wet weather riding so don't know about fenders or high speed stability.
    Will stop here to see what kind of reaction I get .
    Remember, it is supposed to be funny

                        Thems fightin words lol
                        As much as I hate to admit it the donor bike was a Suzuki m50
                        After I removed the cheapo ball bearings and races I discovered that the i.d. and o.d were the same as the the 11.
                        The stem on the donor upper triple needed to be machined slightly to allow the bearing to go far enough down to seat correctly
                        Also small spacer between the locking nuts and upper triple and all was good.
                        The hardest part was fitting 7/8 bars to the yokes that previously held 1 inch bars.I took the original handlebars and made some half circle sleeves .
