But then i couldnt sit on the pillion seat, hang my ankles over the pegs like they were highway pegs, and cruise with one hand...

Ape hangers and custom pegs then :P
And a gas tank in the colours of the American flag is a must...

That's got to be photochopped, I mean, nobody in their right mind would ride something like that... would they...?

Oh we have to; if only to chuck them on for a few hours to get some photographs! plus we would make all the cruiser riders jealous

Don't forget the leather handlebar tassels!

I wonder how it would look on a sportsbike...

Take it easy man, pavement surfing is all fun and games until you collide with something.

Why not turn your FXR in to a streetfighter? Chuck on some frame sliders and make it drop-proof.

Or better still a bucket racer. That would be mean bro. Make a whole cage around it and it will be totaly cool and unbrakable

Right well.. I really don't think i'm gonna be able to fix my bike up in time folks.

I need to completely replace the handlebar, and front break lever and gear change before I could consider it 'rideable'

I shall go to Cycletreads this weekend and shop for as much as I can on a limited budget but we shall have to see..
