I like the turn signals on the first bike.  Little wing looking blade things.

Yeah...  That was a FUN build.  Bike rode like a Cadillac's wet dream, pulled like a steam locomotive and sounded like a Top-Fuel dragster...

I remember some of the good bits replaced with normal stuff, then the whole bike sold.

It DOES look "soulless"! Weird...

I can't understand why anyone would partially part this bike out then sell it off. I have a pretty good guess as far as what kind of coin went into building it and it's likely WAY more than they got back. Just knowing what I have in my 944 ...they took a bath. That's a bike you keep till ya croak unless you have way too much disposable income.

Seeing that bike was a pleasure.  One of the prettiest 900's I have seen.  Yup, she has been killed.
