Alright here's mine 94 vf750c Magna. Different looks for different seasons.

Another Bad Ass skeleton Bike.

Ah yes, a 'bare bones,' um street fighter...Say those spines look like they run down the center of the 'seat'...Ouch!

[Spyke]

My latest Duc project is starting to shape up... the rear fender will likely be shortened but I need to figure out the taillight and plate mounting before I start hacking away on it anymore...

[jonjon]

hey guys i took a nasty spill last night and dont know if my bike is salvageable
what do you guys think?

bars are tweaked, front brake master and mount are done, forks are slightly bent, my stator cover is shattered, tank came unmounted, my rear rim is demolished, pipe is smashed, the chain is now loose from idk what, havent spotted and cracks or bents in the frame tho

[Hapster]

You OK? I know you are typing but how did you come out?

[WhiteChocolate]

Ouch dude, Looks salvageable as long as there are no frame cracks or bends. Are the forks still straight? Your chain is loose because as your bike slid it probably knocked it forward a little. You still have most of your skin, right?

[jonjon]

yeah im good i had leather jacket up, top jeans with knee pads, boots, and gloves but it ate through the knee pads and got some rash on my wrist and knee. my laces from my boots got cut off as soon as i fell so they didnt do much to stop my ankle from getting sprained, but nothings broken and i can walk on my own power slowly but surely.

one thing i noticed on the bike was that the swing arm was kind of tweaked because the chain tension adjuster which is was on the ends of the swing arm were pushed into the swing arm so that probably needs replacing but other than a dent in the frame from the handle bar it looks straight

and for the forks they are bent a bit as the wheel is facing a few degrees off perpendicular of the triple

[gravguy]

if your thinking about your bike and not as worried about your self you willl be fine. all the times ive thought of myself before the car/bike/streetluge ive been fuked

Here's a pic of my OTHER V-Rod (A.K.A. Bad Dog)
Turboed, nitrous, 300 rear, air front and back w/onboard compressor.
I made all the body parts and did the paint.

Now if I can make my 65 bug as fast as this bike....

[Boes]

[PurpleBeetleEater]

Anything with a throttle = fun
(if driven in a nonresponsible way )- off road of course

Cool bike! Gotta get one while you can! I know Buell's don't sell as well as Harleys, but I can't understand killing off the brand.

[waldo]

A couple of years ago i bought a 75 Yamaha 500 I sold and might buy it back. The bike has ran in a long time any suggestions as to what i should do?

[V8Transporter]

If you're talking about a SR-500 single, I've seen a couple built into really nice Cafe racers.

[waldo]

Its not a single its a two cylinder four stroke and i was thinking cafe racer, not matter what I do it will just be a cheap bike for the summer.

[c1run1]

Well i been working on my bike alot , Had it painted , my buddy Chris got it titled . We started her up and she sounded bad ass ! The next day we found an oil leak coming from the oil tank it self , it had a bad weld so i had to grind it down , re-weld it and i pressure tested it this time before i dropped the tank off for paint again .

[V8Transporter]

Now that's a great looking machine!

[ThrasherBill]

Made a handlebar camera mount for the Buell.

Hey TB, that was fun! I noticed the front end got , um, 'light,' a couple times on the cloverleaf. Is the Security Patrol there to clear the road for ya?

[Rhyno]

[Hank22]

I feel kinda strange having my first post on this forum about my bike. but here it is: its not old but it does have a horizontally opposed motor
