lean angle, tattoo, and love it or hate it. The last he cut the frame down similar to what I did for my Turbo w/ VFR750 swingarm. Looks like Hawk GT wheels. Hawk swingarm does not have linkage with the rear shock and it would be easy to move the shock to the bottom.

regarding lean angle or why your rear tire is usually much bigger then the front. The front comes closest to it's limit when on the brakes hard coming into the turn, usually not leaned over too far. get on the front brake when leaned over and see what happens, maybe you shouldn't do it. The rear reaches it's limit when leaned over accellerating hard coming out of the turn. You need a bigger footprint when leaned over cuz centrifical force is trying to send you into the guardrail while gravity is trying to pull you down onto the pavement and torque (HP) is trying to shove you past whomever is infront of you :face: . Most bikes reach the limit on the front before the rear is reached as far as tread on the pavement goes. You can go pretty far but you have to be gentle (no sudden movements) when leaned way over. I've seen people leaned over so far their elbow was dragging without trying. Hey Chris, can I ride your GSXR1000 while I'm in Colorado? 8)

George on a GSR1000.....Chris, I think he is pushing his luck here with you a bit.

I like the Munch photo Mike posted because it is something I can afford, maintain and wont have worry about keeping washed/waxed to avoid getting ragged on constantly by everyone at rallies

Thanks Dan for doing these summary posts for us.

My vote goes for Carl's post under "Tanks for nothing"..... In pointing this out, he did a service to the seller ( he may not think so... :lol: ) & the CBX community....... :thumupp:

Thanks Dan....... 8)

Sure! Definitely affordable! For people who can buy several CBXes for 18K each or shell out $5,000,000.- for an AC Cobra. :roll:
They run around 60-80 Thousand Euro = close to $100,000.- Just recently one of the early pre-production models (3 were believed to exist) surfaced in France.
