I just spent a solid minute running ideas through my head of what around my house I could get away with coating in a layer of glitter. I bet you did the same when you got that. In fact, I know you did.

I'll collab with my girlfriend and try to get something done for you tonight! Find me a source pic and a general idea of what you want done and I can work with it. Also, this is pretty neat: http://io9.com/5477868/post+apocalyptic-strawberry-shortcake-leads-80s-toys-rebellion/gallery/2 edit: so is this pretty close? found it via ~The Internet~

Z3n posted:I have bad luck with Kawasaki I6es. Well, I personally know somebody that think you misspelled Honda in the above statement. Compared to a CBX a KZ is both more solid and easier to wrench. Also easier to force-feed  But ok, just for you I did an additional geometric test-fit. 750 and 900 SEI engines will fit too. For both engines you'll be able to use the lower rear mount. Good luck finding a SEI these days though. A car totaled my 750 two decades ago. Reality check around where I live: KZ1300 - available and cheap. CBX - available and expensive as gently caress. 750/900 SEI - wrapped around trees and long forgotten. I guess our I6 dreams just died with your irrational hate for the KZ Let's talk I3s in a SV650 frame then. A GT750 engine might fit with almost no frame modification. poo poo, I just provided myself another awful idea.

Also easier to force-feed I'll get there. I was thinking Triumph 675 engine in an SV650 but that will probably have to wait for awhile now that I have a job and all. On the bright side, a steady paycheck buys a lot of tubing and stuff. I don't hate the KZ. I just have bad luck with them. I'll get a good one one day.

Thanks for the compliments, everyone. It's worked out nicely, been a big hit with everyone. Gnaghi posted:I wanna see it wheelieing down the road. I'll get there  It's still up on stands, I'm waiting for things to harden up before I remount the tires to attempt to avoid gouges.
