Hopefully the title caught everyone attention!!
Since my 37k early mille is basically worthless now I am tempted to build something from it rather than sell it. Thinking some sort of mega scrabler /flat track mutant with no body work, knobbly tyres, a short flat seat and some riser bars. No doubt it will become useless to ride but potentially more saleable plus I get spend hours in the garage with the hammers. However I want to some rough sketches on the PC. Does anyone have a side on pic of a gen 1 without any body work? Tank on or tank off is fine just remove the plastics! Thanks Matt

Trouble with a lot of sports bikes like most women they look better with their clothes on.

Saw this and remembered this thread.
It's not my pic, so credit to whoever built it/owns the pic. Might help with giving an idea of overall look, though still mainly a Tuono, the seat and knobblies might help give some inspiration. It looks like the original seat subframe has been used. Have you thought about something like a jester seat (uses different subframe), Renthal bars and knobblies? Maybe make a front half mudguard to mount on the front of the bottom yoke to give an enduro look? High level can/s? |
