i like that, the way the engine is just kind of hanging down there with no frame around it. the engine is part of the structure... get that engine shined up though eheh maybe do some of that yellowish color to it as well on the fins or something.

looks sweet..good work..it looks ALOT better since the 1st pic you put up. What size is the engine and what is the weight of the bike..trying to get a feel for the speed of the bike..i know nothing from speed bikes. Looks good, i like the look of the bike without down tubes for the frame

Ouch! We saw one in yellow the day Chris bought his Hurricane. Very nice! The sound is awesome, too. No excuses, not loud, just very impressive. Something not to mess around with at the lights. :laughing:

Thanks for the encouragment all! answers to questions posed over the last few posts.

Bike is a 400 CC, not sure of the wieght, but I do knows its alot lighter then my buddys Black/night hawk(not sure whish one was the name, anyone help me out?)

plans for it, get it running and get my liscense and maybe do a bit of cruising.

Where I am, Northern Ontario. Should be some nice places to go for a run.

Hoping to get it fired up this week, as all my parts came in. Ill let you know how that goes.
