I was finally able to find a good deal on a Buell to allow me to get rid of the Sporty and not lose too much on it. The front tire is worn oddly, but the back is a new Sportmax. I'll probably be switching tires by spring. I got'er Thursday night and I've put 200 miles on'er!



Also, that drawing is almost finished.

Congrats on the bike, and the picture is looking great. The best mod you can do to that bike is to get rid of those Sportmax's. You'd be amazed what good tires and this bike will do.

Well... They're already scuffed almost to the edge. I haven't decided what to get as far as tires go yet...

Great looking bike Thump! And the drawing rocks!! If you could part with a copy of it I would love one.

One thing to check with your 12 is that it looks like a CG to me with that yellow spring under the seat. Might be something to check out. Put a good set of tires on it and it will be a totally new bike.

Hmmm... I think I'm starting to like the spaghetti strainer thing on the rear fender.
