It's got a really nice stance! I think the swingarm looks a bit uninspiring though.

The tank range must be... limited!

I wouldn't kick it out of my garage though! :) :thumbup:

Okay I've dug the photo's out. I see there were taken back when the bikes were Wakan Motorcycles. It looks like I saved these back in 2006 8O
At least these photo's seem to be a lot better than the ones now on the new owners site.

Enjoy :thumbup:

Looks like an underseat fuel tank - Looks lovely and slim.

Bung a half-fairing on and I'd be happy.
