It'd be cooler if they didn't try making it look like a Harley. Lose the fatbobs and the exhaust. Fatbobs are too big to look right on a bike with a small engine. The long assed exhaust doesn't fit a Triumph either, unless you make 'em upswept and leave off the fishtails.

You sound like a guy, who after a grenade explodes, says " It could have taken his leg off a little higher above the knee and it should have really blown the other guys face off in the opposite direction, and ......"

You are trying to make sense of a rat bike?:rolleyes:

Rat bikes should evolve into such, not be built into one, IMO. That's how mine has been going over the past 8 years.

I'm not really sure this owner is concerned with "cool", to me it looks like its purely about function
Yeah, those fishtails are nothing but function. To each his own, I was just stating my opinion. As long as the owner likes what he's got, that's fine with me. The changes I talked about are what I'd do if it were mine. When I bought my bike, it had fatbobs. I hated the look. A Sporty tank was better, at least until I found the current Mustang tank at a swap meet, complete with rattlecan flames.
