Re: Abomination
Please be more clear in future mate, although it still stands!!
Proof that four strokes are over complicated
Re: Abomination
Is this your attempt to 'crash' the VJMCCC' website? I see way more abominations these days than good or passable modified bikes.
I we posted every picture of every idiot who took the front and rear fenders of his mid seventies bike, put lower bars on, bar end mirrors, tiny rear light, stupidly thin rear seat and bragged for ever about how they had built a 'Deus' bike, we could crash the whole internet!
I was genuinely considering filming my 12 year old daughter doing such a conversion/abomination on a bike for You Tube just to illustrate how skill-less it is.
Thank god I've found a bunch of 'deeper' engineers in you guys.

Re: Abomination
Have a look at my 'Earwig" thread and see my take on a GT550 'C' - I hope it doesn't come under this thread title though!

No, that's not what I mean at all.
You've built a beautiful bike with taste, precision, dedication and love.
I mean the idiots just strip stuff off and believe they've improved it, and I'm also not talking about genuine weight saving procedures.
I won't rant any further. There are worse things a bloke can do, but I wouldn't consider sharing a pint with anyone who had ruined a perfectly serviceable classic bike 'Because they could'.
