i like the street tracker and cafe both, but lean more towards the sturdier look of the cafe...

I like the street tracker also... but for me... none looked that appealing... I liked the caffe.. but it just didn't look like as a caffe... to... open I guess... the Street tracker looked best but that fuck'n exhaust has to go!

Chopper, without question.

Cafe is cool but there are better bikes to use (CB750 anyone?).

A street tracker was cool when noone else had one or when you converted an old Harley racebike. Now they are played out.

Honestly... a bike like that... I'd just hack off the seat into a solo seat, take off the front fender, and rock some drag bars... Fin.

I voted Chopper.

I guess I'd also hack the exhaust off right at the mounting bracket.

It'd be a toss up between the Cafe and the Street Tracker, but I'm leaning Cafe. But you couldn't go wrong with a Street Tracker either.

I like the chopper best, but to do it right I'll have to completely disassemble the bike and send it off to have a hardtail put on it. That's BIG money. But I love the look of the rigid frame, and I love the idea of a suicide shift, it's not hard at all, but it freaks people out.

I might do a quick cafe job on it until I can save up the cash to have the frame done or I blow up the motor and have to pull it out to rebuild it.

This is of course predicated on the assumption that I buy the bike instead of dumping the money into turning the KTM into the baddest tard on the planet.

Maybe that's the poll I should do.
