    I'm keeping the GSXR for open road riding, I want a small light bike for more urban riding. I was even considering a KTM Duke 390, but I think I'd have more fun on a supermoto.

    I do like the BMW twins but the seat/subframe bit to be desired, do you need cert for a bolt on subframe mod ?

    Funny, I was thinking. Jeez, that's substantially ugly. Also, R65, probably, like 40hp, maybe 60 when pushed to unreliable, and still heavy even with everything removed. Why bother?
    Don't you look at my accountant.

    indeed.

    I need you to buy this for me: ticks a lot of boxes for me. I would add front guard and a fork brace: maybe a slightly larger fuel tank for road use... same shape but deep enough to line up with the bottom of the seat.

    Now yer talking. 70+hp and 130kg plus would sound great. I was going to concede something complimentary about the FT, but this has given some perspective to what would be fun and cool.

    Check out the brochure! I could be That Guy!.

    Next step would be ape hangers and highway pegs. Spare bike shows someone else had the same idea.

    Aermacchi made of course. When we were looking for the similar 125 for use as a base for a replica Macchi 125 roadracer I was told about those 2 250's.
    There's another one wrecked in the SI I believe. Not really good for much at all.

    Has he fitted a sensor light on the front? Does it only come on when someone walks in front of it?

    Except turning up to HOG meetings with said ape hangers and 15:1 premix.
