It's not a Knee down Canyon Carver but I thought it looked cool.
For what it is.

I had a 1983 Honda VT 500 Ascot run like new but was wrecked it had bin wrapped around Telephone Pole, the frame was bent bad enough the rear tire tracked 6 inches out of line from the front. Used a Butane Torch and Sledgehammer to straighten it as much as possible. Built it back as a Rat Bike Bobber back before they were cool. Sold it for $200.00. Now there poplar

I had a Yamaha 650 that vibrated so bad that the little screws in side the tach and speedo vibrated out and both faces would buzz back and forth inside the guages. They were both good for target fixation while riding.

It leaked so much oil, there was no need to lube the chain.........................
or wear the same clothes again.

It was cheap and ran nice though.

That's a 500 single. I had a SR500 brand new.
I wouldn't own another one.

Hay-Man, Thumpers Rule
It's a Shame they Cubed the Blast.
If they would change the gearing they would make 600rr live hard, and if they would put xb9 top end, cam and front end on them they would have no need for the 1125's.
HE HE just kidding.

Oh yeah - no issues with singles any more - I like the KLR650 a lot.

But the SR melted it's oil rings and the rear wheel chain tensioner let go at 80mph.

And it was a biatch to start sometimes - if it didn't go in three kicks you may as well try pushing it.
