Haven't seen it, but I like it. Any details on it?

[SVRACER01]

needs rear sets i think

[RocketPunch]

NICE! Just not sure about the nonexistent swing arm angle.

[xrocket21]

I like it a lot


that exhaust looks real quiet....

Roland Sands does some awesome work

[typeone]

damn that sweet! totally agree on the rearsets.

[seth399]

that thing looks bad-ACE

[Paul_E_D]

Yes, rearsets would make the bike. The flat swingarm is common for motards. Mine is pretty flat as well, but I noticed no ill effects. Aesthetically though, a shorter swingarm would look a ton better, along with a steeper rake...

BMF6R, click the linky.

Want.

[Kenn157]

need!

[DankDirtyBird]

Combo Deal?

[Expat]

I like but personally think it would look better with a minimal front mudguard

[Chippertheripper]

Boner!

Yeah, even just a little loop from forkguard to forkguard would do it.

Must Have

[peterz85]

Its got a fixed foot peg just below the swingarm pivot bolt, just in front of the rear master lower piston joint.

Roland must build his bikes for himself, who needs rearsets LOL

Cool bike

It's just the stock KTM 525 foot peg. It's too far forward for that seating position IMO. It would require real modification to create mounting points for rearsets, which is likely why he didn't do it. Most of his work is cosmetic...
