    Re: VFR400 Ground-up

    Doesn't seem like there's much angle on the swingarm?

    Yes, but we were looking yesterday at this and we think dogbones may be needed.

    Any non-hipstamatic pics?

    I can't remember what forks you used? or are those stock? Axle looks way too big to be vintage...

    I think it's pre-compensated for Scottie's fat ass, once he's on there you'll see more swingarm angle than you know what to do with...

    I'll give you a kidney and left nut for it?

    I like the tail but it needs to the rest of the RCV style bodywork to make it look right. that a Tyga piece?

    Tim, Chrissy is well aware of this. And the rest of us are well aware that he'll never grow a single inch taller. I could be 140 lbs and he'd still call me a fatty...
