Why did you flip the forks around, to increase trail?

Go green, buy a Kawasaki!

I doubt you will get a reply from him. He hasn't logged onto this site for more than a year, so he probably lost interest, sold, scrapped, etc. the bike. That's not uncommon for someone who does stuff like that to a bike. :laugh: Ed

Or he's in the Grey Bar Hotel. :unsure: I was going to suggest, if the guy that bought the first car didn't transfer the title, he could get it back with the Cops, resell it and put that money into a bike.
Oh well. :whistle:
