I could see that... It probably wouldn't happen to me, but if it did I think I'd be obligated to cockwhip the retard...

In the final fitment and dyno stage now.
My goal is to have one on Vader before the first ride of the spring.

Congrats on the new bike. That Vtwin does indeed sounds wicked.

i know what you mean about feeling slow compared to the I-4 it takes a lil getting used to, but i think the power all over more then makes up for the lack of a huge 185+ top end

I am so F'n jealous. I loved the TLRs. I remember racing at TWS the first year they came out and the EMGO Suzuki team was there. Boy those things sounded sweet on the banking! Awesome bike dude! Have fun with her!

Nice ride dude

Suzuki should at least bring back the TLR engine (not the SV1000 water down version) and put it to good use.

I do get asked that question quite a bit. I just laugh. It's really funny when I pull up next to a Harley, and you watch them trying to process it. *It sounds like a v-twin, but it looks like a sportbike. What the hell?*

As for the base gaskets being left out, I used the gasket sealer material that is used for jetski motors in place of the gaskets. She hasn't complained a bit, and I have over 12k on it since I did the motor work.
