I had this bike for over 2.5 years now.  It was my first street bike - I'm sad to see it go.  I've dropped it twice - once on each side and both drops were at a standstill.  As a result of these 2 drops, there are a few scuffs:  The engine cover fins have some cosmetic damage, each mirror cover has a few light scratches, and the bar ends are no longer perfect.  Also - it comes with a 'rebuilt' title. The original owner crashed it with only a few thousand miles on it and Louie (WMRRA #22 and mechanic by trade) bought it with the dream of building it for his very own street bike. It was professionally rebuilt by him. Louie's attention to detail and penchant for getting things perfect is well known. I bought this bike from him as my first street bike. I've loved riding it but he's since bought a new bike for me (yes I AM a lucky grrrl!!).


Ask anyone who's seen the bike, it's an attention getter, absolutely gorgeous.
