Turbo, if you told me you bought that bike for track only I would think you made the right move, but that bike just screams "GIVE ME A TICKET, I SPEED" whenever I see it. I would feel sheepish just driving by a cop on that thing no matter how slow I was going.

This thing is so minimalist that I can't take my eyes off the details. Check out HPN's website to see more of these beauty's.

i prefer the mandarin yellow for bumbles. I recently blacked out the intake tube covers which I think completes the look. 'Course it looks better with the seat cowl instead of the backrest I had my wife on the ride.

Good news : ~1K for a total respray (including wheels). Made some research here in Greece ...just in case (you never know, when the hype expires > prices could(?) drop, he he).

Bad news : that trellis frame.

I know you guys are proud of your HP2Sports, but do you really think the F-117 wedgie shape is artistic?

+1. This one has my vote although I would do something to provide some contrast. The total blacked out theme is so....uh....adolescent.

I didn't like the DDP much & repainted her to match my Nolan Helmet. Sorry to say I don't own this one anymore...







The Boxercup lured me away...

Sorry to say Mike, but I think you moved down in the art department. That's a nice red S you had.
