    They are not a pretty engine, definately intended to hide behind plastic.

    2 questions spring to mind, where did they put the battery, and how effective is the radiator without fairings sending air it's way?

    Don't you look at my accountant.
    He's the only one I've got.

    I had a mate with a Rotax one. Ok I guess DR one is quite a bit less exotic .

    Fuck the lot of you.

    I recently watched a 1982 Gpz1100 close on Trademe for $13,500.

    Optimistic sellers sometimes win.

    And I've seen a Katana 1100 (original Model) not reach reserve price. Your point is ... ???

    Battery issue is explained in the questions, and I doubt if the front mudguard would deflect much air-flow at any speed.

    Could this be a Ducati "Bobber" ... ??

    So, standard and becoming increasingly collectable 80s muscle bike.

    You don't get the point of this thread do you? Why do you keep coming back?

    Well there's a 1983 version on there (that would need considerably less spent on it) that hasn't had any bites even though it's asking price is only $8k.

    My point is, it's the market that determines something's value - rather than your opinion.

    Surely it’s an improvement on stock, I’d have binned all the bodywork especially the fairing/ headlight ( glow worm)
    DeMyer's Laws - an argument that consists primarily of rambling quotes isn't worth bothering with.
