NICE, but I prefer off road, hence my question, where do I get those downpipes?
want to fit them on my XTZ…

any suggestion?

cheers,
Patrick

Very nice, tidy machine. I too love big Jap singles, although I have gone the Honda XL route. I have also made some designs for a Cafe’ racer and a long low chop from the XL. I just need to get my welding skills and then I shall hopefully start doing them.
About the lights, that’s not ugly, that’s just pure functionalism……… Scratching at night you’ll need that candle power to see beasties on the road and where the twisties go…

It has the refined simplicity of a TT2 without a fairing, 1 less cylinder. I like BIG 4-stroke singles. Is it a street fighter or an Endurance racer? Mead & Tompkins won 24hr endurance races in the 70′s on push-rod B50′s. Keep it simple. “Nice work, Like it”.

Nice, I’ve often thought that those big bore enduros had potential for this. I like it.
