"Greetings from the USA. Finally finished the ultimate 600. My love for
Kawasaki's has finally pushed me over the edge. I just invested over $25,000
(I'm not sure what that is in pounds, but a lot) in a $6,000 motorcycle. The
list is long. Ohlins RT front forks from Yamaha R7 & Ohlins rear shock R7
tripple clamps Brembo monoblock calipers & 320mm disks & master cylinder Marchesini
Magnesium wheels Wrapped in Metzeler Rennsport super stickies RAM single sided
swingarm Hand made Akropovic stainless high mount exhaust Hand made Fuel tank
with ATL fast fill dry brake (optional) Stack Tach & telemetry Hand made rear
seat cowling with telemetry door Hand made LED front turn signals (small slit
just below the body line on upper) Nigel special Dynomite vented carbon front
fender Dan Kyle built Fire breathing 600 120+hp closer to a 700 Close ratio
tranny Harris rear sets Titanium fasteners everywhere I could put them Polished
powder coated then polished Frame Custom Super bike esq... paint scheme with
a bit of tribal flames thrown in.. and, on and on and on Any way, if you happen
to put this on your site, That Hand I keeping talking about is actually 3
sets of hands, Mine, Dan Kyle and my good friend Stuart Stratton who recently
was killed at Daytona Raceway while competing in a Formula USA motorcycle
race event. Stuart Hand made my exhaust and helped me disassemble then reassemble
the bike. We finished the week before his death. So I dedicate any press the
bike get's to his memory, visit motorcyclesarecool.com
and leave a prayer for his Mom & Dad..
