Oooooooh YES!! That's more my style than a motard.I hope they never sell them in this country cause I'd do serious damge to myself - physicaly and finacialy!

mmm....interesting, but I think my F650 is safe for a while yet!

Very pretty and exciting it is. But have not yamaha already done it (engine is yamaha 600) with the SRX600.

And for sheer beauty, what about This

exactly.
i had a 2002 640 KTM motard - but the 12" of suspension put me off.
this is pretty close to what i'm going to build in my street tracker project.

anyone have Tjebbe bruin's contact details?
i think i'm going to need some fabrication help....

yeah = kinda, i owned one and it was a step in the right direction..
problems were:
- spindly forks.
- perimeter frame meant more modern styling than i wanted
- wheels were too skinny
- clip on handlebars

so rather than work on an SRX, i'm staring with an XT500 and a bare frame.
