    Steepen up the fork rake to motorcycle use, lose the coal burning engine, give it a restyle and lose a bunch of weight off it. Yeah, might make a good basis.
    Don't you look at my accountant.
    He's the only one I've got.

    You guys all realise that just because you can appreciate a bike with race like handling, doesn't mean you have to hate anything without it...right?

    Dave, your restoring a fucken stinger. It's gonna be slow and shit to ride. Still doesn't stop it being cool as fuck.

    That superglide is cool in my book, I'd love to cruise round on it from time to time.

    Every now and then one of those jumbo bus lifting helicopters flys over my house. The windows rattle.

    It'll be a shit load more technically advanced and at least handle like a motorcycle. Why artificially handicap a bike replica with stuoopid geometry?
