    where opinion holds more weight than fact.

    It's better to not pass and know that you could have than to pass and find out that you can't. Wait for the straight.

    I think theres a Buell X1 down this way that is similar tot eh top pic (shock mounted under the frame), it was the headers running down the side of the bike with the wrapping all over it. Beautiful looking bike.

    I'm loving the street-tracker style bikes eh. I would love to build one some day, but wonder what they would be like to ride.

    Agreed. Not to mention ugly too. Personal taste and all that I suppose....
