Just curious...

Looks like a bit of fun, but a bit wary of the headlight setup and past history... Always a hassle when they're a few hundred k away - bit hard to check it out.

Wondering if anybody knows this bike?

That headlight setup is totally kick ass.

Looks like the headlight that Toebug used to have on his Katana.

My son looked at buying it, spoke with the owner and decided it was a POS. The k's are all over the place and he would not confirm what they were. Claimed it had never been crashed but changed the front cause he wanted too.

It is about $1500 overpriced as it looks like it has been build by a dork. There are plenty of stock SV's for sale for similar money and with a better history.

He grabbed on 04 for same money with a few extras and with a full history.

Cheers

Yeah that is Tony's old headlight unit, he made it from scratch.
