This article appears in Classic Motorcycle Mechanics mag. It is such an oddball (and desirable) machine that I had to share. I shows what you can do with imagination, passion and a sack of cash.
Feel free to dribble on your screens.

I wonder where he stores it. It may be worth a trip to the UK with a jemmy in my cabin bag. :drool:

55000 squids to complete it and then leave it sitting for ten years? Wonder what his other priorities were?

I suspect it took ten years to recover from the injuries after his wife found out how much it cost.

I put a thread (http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/showthread.php/27407-Suzuki-RG750-6-I-ll-have-one-thanks) up about that back in 2006 unfortunately the forums I linked to no longer seem to exist, back then it was still being built so it's good to see he did he get it finished

Has'nt ridden it for 10 years?

Or more likely took it out and scared ten shades of crap out of himself.

Good man Kickaha. I missed that thread, so this was the first I knew about the beast. It must be nice to have the money to spend on an obsession like that. That is an impressive powerplant. I wonder if there is space for another two pots?
