If I score a bike by then I'll be there.


If you haven't, and if I have the KZ fully roadworthy by then, you're welcome to use. it.  :bigok:

This is the beast, but it'll have proper handle bars and not these stupid things on it when it's done and ready.

Whadya mean?  Those are great bars.   With handles like that, I wouldn't need risers!

With bars like that, turning a bike is only a mere suggestion. They're narrower than they look and provide dang little leverage.

Should we start a weather debate now? :gerg:

I would, but I don't think they predict the weather that far out.

I had bars like that on my CB 750 and I never had no problems.  Kept my wrists level with my elbows.  That extra 10 inches I got provides lots of leverage.

Eases the strain on my carpal tunnel syndrome wrists.  They're not all bad.

At least it's relative to motorcycles and not
cancer, tits or plumbing.

Some tits could used to measure for plumb.

Anyway, it's not a discussion. They're coming off the bike.

Because I think they look ugly and stupid. And it's my bike.

:)

(but to be fair, it'll basically be very last thing I ever do to the bike - getting it back in running shape is the fist thing)
