Very cool! Wish the photos were bigger and I could read the article. We get about four moto rags at the house, but SuperStreet isn't one of them. Got any other hi-rez pix for those of us who like moto pr0n?

Thanks for the compliment sicks:thumbup

Nice man

 

[Flying Pig]

This is the same one on display at IMS each year, right? :thumbup

 

[Hooli]

A lot tastier than the usual airbrushed slapped-out stuff that Super Squidbike usually features. Great job! :thumbup

PS: You planning to have a showdown with Sinncere?

 

[JS_R1]

Yes, same color scheme but I changed my whole front end and wheels this July. I ended up getting a full oversize H20 Performance race radiator with custom radiator guard, Brembo GP4-RR monoblock nickel calipers, Spiegler quick disconnect brake lines, Brembo GP front master cylinder with GP remote adjuster like Rossi and Hayden uses, Ohlins FGR 810 forks, BrakeTech SBK 320mm narrowband rotors, Brembo HPK perch and half lever, AvioRace start/stop switch identical to the Factory race teams, RaceBolts front & rear titanium axles, YEC ECU, XT Racing Potentiometer Sensor with SLS130 Quick Release Kit & Custom 54mm Fork Bracket, Ohlins SD-027 Steering Damper with Harris Performance Fork Damper Bracket, and OZ Racing Cattiva Magnesium Magnesium Matte Black Wheels with Dunlop UK slicks... Also a rare Valter Moto Rear Stand that you only see on the Factory Race Teams. I wanted to build a WSBK racebike. I bought my R1 brand new in Feb 04 and took me almost 7 1/2 years to finally complete my build. Most all these parts I ordered were special order and took months since they were coming straight from Italy. Total value on aftermarket parts are about $55,000:ride

This is the same one on display at IMS each year, right? :thumbup

Also a rare Valter Moto Rear Stand that you only see on the Factory Race Teams.

I don't know if they're rare, but they are expensive. :laughing

 

[JS_R1]

Geoff owner of GP-Tech is the ValterMoto US dealer. He said I'm the first person that's ordered this particular rear stand. It cost me $700 since it was a special order item directly from Italy:wow
You're right Sincere, Geoff said you don't see this rear stand at all besides on the Factory Race Teams because they are very expensive:wtf

I don't know if they're rare, but they are expensive. :laughing

 

[JS_R1]

Thanks for the kind words "sicks":thumbup

[JS_R1]

Thanks for the kind words DucatiHoney:teeth I don't have all the good toys like you missy:ride
