Reading through this thread, I was pretty sure I'd taken a pic of the instruments on this bike in Indy.

Here ya go...

Just to keep this alive, this bike is sex.  Does anyone have pics of the completed, roadgoing version?  I know there are a few pics of it with carbon fiber bodywork, but most I've seen still lack an airbox and a few other odds and ends.  Also, did they ever get the radiator clearance worked out?

As far as I remember the owner ran away with his tail between his legs when we questioned him.   :-*

I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

did that bike ever run?  no brake lines?  dont get me wrong.. its gorgeous. I just wonder if it ever became a registered road bike.

Raux

there were issues with radiator clearance, etc.

I think he eventually figured it all out and had offered the conversion for sale as a kit, but I never heard of anyone taking him up on one.

Did the 696s used to have single sided swingarms or did they mod it? Beautiful bike!

that was out before the 1100 I think
it was a SBK swingarm IIRC

Its a show pony.  A very, very sexy show pony.  But 696?  There's little 696 in it. 

Not aware of anything called 696s, but 696 never had a SSS.
