This is one of the bikes i'm looking at at the moment. I think i've seen it before somewhere but can't remember its being sold in milwaukee so i was wondering if any one else had seen it before?

If you buy it are you going to take off all the ghey playboy bunny and mudflap broad stuff ? Looks damn ugly like that.

Yeah just noticed that. Jason's bike had an all black frame. Guess he just sold the plastics and put his track plastics back on his 750.

my take on custom painted plastics are the bike was probably down so they went the custom route. It looks ok yeah the mud flap chick and playboy bunny got to go. Did you check out any hondas? In my option the hondas are the way to go, repairs most places stock honda parts vs kawaski and suzuki parts. Just my O2 I dumped a kawaski it took 4 weeks to get the parts in and my buddy laid down a GSXR 1000 that took almost 5 weeks to get back. If they would of been hondas they would of been done in less than 2 weeks.

hondas don't fit me well witch is the reason i am going back to the suzuki i had a 99 gsxr but sold it and i've rode on a 2003 cbr 600rr and it just wan't comfortable for me i'll see if i like it again on this one when i go to look at it. a buddy of mine just saw the pictures i posted and called me to say he knows the guy and he has a passion for painting didn't say anything about it being laid down but said it had a motor put in it already

the only time the bike was down, it was down lightly and fixed immediately. it was custom painted because the owner was/is a painter by profession. www.artistimo.com it was his streetbike as well as show bike.

as far as getting the pinup girls and playboy thing off.. good luck, that bike has so much f'n clearcoat on it.. I wouldn't want to be the one trying..
