I would say that it was an exercise to exhibit his exquisite engineering and fabrication skills. I mean look at the workmanship on display ::) :o ::) :o :P

Compared to an R1 any 500 chook chaser is going to be gutless ;D
-
For years the factory engineers had struggled with frame design, they obviously had overlooked the S frame!

Please make it stop ~ my eyes hurt

What the seller has overlooked is the R1 can make a fine off road motorcycle with the standard chassis.... also you can have the best lights at the Enduro..... actually bet most of the people here would struggle to keep up with this guy :-)

Triple Monkey Bike rocks, plus of course the H1R and KR500. Pity Kawasaki never developed a KR500 roadbike like Suzuki and Yamaha did with the RG and RZ.

Wow that MT3 is a work of art, looks like the triple is suppose to be there!

I wonder if he kept the original Toyota engine as well... at least that would make it a bit more interesting. Even more dangerous... but also more interesting. ;D
