Some would still consider them just that.

No modification goes unpunished. Memento mori.  Good people drink good beer.  Things happen pretty fast at high speeds.

It's all up to your will level, your thrill level and your skill level.  Everything else is just fluff.

Those pics speak volumes. Pure bike. A motor and what goes with it... nothing more. [thumbsup] [Dolph] [wine]
I plan to list the Federal Gov't. as a dependent on my next 1040 tax filing!

I have flying honey badgers and I'm not afraid to use them!

The fact that flame throwers exist is proof that someone somewhere said "I'd sure like to set those people over there on fire but I'm just not close enough to get the job done."

CONFIDENCE: the feeling you have right before you understand the situation.

It used to be a TT2...

First off, the motor isn't the original at all.  See the oil lines?  There were none on the early 600 box. That's a Paso 750 case with a wet clutch from a later model.  The TT2 case was polished, not black, so even that clutch isn't original.  The jugs and heads look like they are from a later model SS or M750.  Paso heads are unique with black coating and gold valve covers, unless he's changed that.  I wouldn't because the paso's pistons are 10.5:1 and very nice.

It looks like all that's left from the TT2 is the frame/swingarm, tank and fairings.  Everything else looks borrowed.  The wheels were one of the biggest draws to the TT2 (magnesium?) as well as the forks (also magnesium).  He's put on regular old 17" 3-spoke brembos and aluminum/steel M1R forks from a Paso.

Nice job, but to call it a TT2 is reaching.. FAR..

"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the airâ€"these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

I will be putting a copy of that exhaust on my Alazzurra project...  That silver one that sold on Ebay really pumped me up.

The one on this bike is not the same as the Conti on the TT2, this is a Bub.  I am using a copy of the Conti from Mario Sassi except in stainless.
