looks like a stock tank that's been well 'customized' with a hammer.

That cusomizaton would reduce the fuel capacity of my S4RS tank by half.

True indeed.  Its easy to forget how much smaller the tank's capacity is than the outside appearance would lead one to believe.

That might be a concern for you "Mainlander's".....but since I live on an island and hardly travel out of a 20 mile radius :'(
milage range is not a concern.
Thought it looked very unique [thumbsup]

Maybe I am just blinded by cutie in the wedges!!

It took me a moment to realize you were talking about her shoes... :)

And I was wondering how he could tell she had a wedgie!

"Another creation of Angel Lussiana is this concept roadster based on the Ducati 900 SS. The framework of origin has been restyled and the bike has got Kayaba forks accompanied by GBC adjustable shock at the rear. The frame is unit formed aluminum that is lightened the weight of the bike.
He says "I wanted to create a motorcycle that was new in the truest sense of the word: nimble and fun, but not for this Spartan, in fact, I wanted to give a touch of elegance to make an object not only pleasant to the eyes of expert but even more trendy...". If you notice the curves, the bike looks slimmer thanthe 900 SS. The swingarm has been strengthed working on the truss reinforcement, with the two main beams with a layer of sheet metal in Peraluman by 2.5 mm"

First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Socialist.
Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Trade Unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me--and there was no one left to speak for me.

I got up close & personal with one yesterday at my dealer.
My immediate thought was that it really needs gold wheels to make it "pop".
I was there all day and, despite repeated promptings to take it for a test ride, my common sense prevailed and I was content to just sit on it and make "vroom-vroom" noises.
Like Dirty Harry said, "a man's gotta' know his limitations".
Might have been different if it had gold wheels.  [evil]
