There is no such thing as a "P-51 Combat Fighter"

The P-51 mustang was made from riveted aluminum sheet, not machined billet

A plain old steel frame is far more fatigue-resistant than any aluminum frame

There is nothing on this that could remotely be described as a monocoque

Argh

E: oh okay the "P-51 combat fighter" is one of their other motorcycle models. That's a stupid name. Other points still stand

I don't know what you're talking about, that seat is clearly designed for just one coque.

100 miles of backroads brapping on the new to me Duke today. Got drat this thing is so much fun. Just wide open throttle everywhere, redlining every gear, easy mode cornering. Exactly what I wanted out of a little bike.





Nice! Getting exactly what you want out of a bike is :kiss:
