This project started with a 4000 original mile excellent running bike. Obviously much has been done. This is a tribute to that virginia based shop that builds awesome customs ( not sure if i'm allowed to use their name so i wont, but they build awesome bikes just way tooooo expensive for most folks...roughly $30,000).
Now a little about me. I build one bike per year just for stress relief, i pick it up in the fall , work it all winter into the spring, ride it all summer and then start all over again, i have absolutely no overhead, thats how my price is so low, i'm not looking to make a living doing this , this just allows me to build my next project, but having said that i will not take a loss either, i need to get at least my investment back and anything above that is gravy, this is a no reserve auction with the starting price set at my lowest price so if you want this bike , just bid , if you live anywhere near me feel free to come take it for a ride and check it out in person or have somebody come look it over for you... now on to the bike. The bike now has 5000 miles on it , i have personally driven it about 1000 miles and can testify to how well it runs, the motor is stone stock reliable honda, the carbs have been cleaned and rejetted to the pods and free flowing exhaust... The exhaust is a one off factory hindle , that is their ultra thin wall stainless that only weighs about 6 pounds, it is totally spring loaded and can come off in about 2 mins... don't ask how i got them to do it for me , i'm still paying back that favor...lololol The rear is a very low mile 2012 ducati monster single sided swingarm off of a 1100 evo with the marchesini rim ( gorgeous).. also a houston super bike quick change hub to make rear sprocket changes quick and easy should you be so inclined... rear tire is a brand new Michelin pilot gt radial 180/55/ZR17 nice an fat Ballistic 8 cell battery, new Rick's regulator and flywheel just to make sure the charging is spot on.. Randakk's spin on oil filter adapter to make oil changes quick and easy... The complete front end is a low mileage 2012 triumph street triple also with a michelin pilot gt 120/70/ZR17 tire ... so awesome radial tires that handle great and this bike stops on a dime... True carbon fiber fenders both front and rear... Randakk new front brake pull and master rerservoir.... The seat is stock honda that has been recontoured and reshaped and covered with high end vinyl for great wear and clean up , it is so comfortable that you can ride for hours and not feel all beat up when you get off. The rear grab bar is 1.75" marine grade stainless that will never rust or dull, with a ducati digital rear light set up.. If i have forgotten anything and i'm sure i have forgotten tons, feel free to call me as i built the bike and i ride the bike, my cell is (905-977-9436....Nick) You can also go to Pipeburn.com... they did a nice write up on the bike (nov 4th) to learn a little bit more about both me and the bike... thanks... nick Forgot to mention, I have a clean clear title in my name, also I will help your shipper in any way I can , but the shipping is up to you to arrange, if you live within a reasonable distance I may even deliver it , but you must do your own paperwork and the bike must be payed for before hand.....and lastly needless to say ( but I'll say it anyway) the bike is not brand new and as such is being sold without any warranty.Expressed or implied....I always get someone who asks if it comes with warranty .nvp Also forgot to mention , this bike is not a show bike , I ride it all the time , it was at the last Friday the 13th, in port Dover, but it does show very well. Having said that ,all I think it really needs to be a strong show bike is a good polishing of the valve cover and side covers ( prob about $100-150 ) Also reserve the right to end the auction early as the bike is also listed for sale locally. |

Schwantz and Mackenzie on the Nurburgring box
Mon, 10 Dec 2012A 500GP bike never fails to stop me in my tracks and that’s exactly what happened when I spotted this Schwantz example from the early nineties, proudly displayed on the Arai stand at the recent Motorcyclelive show. On loan from Crescent Suzuki and accompanied by a rostrum publicity shot from the 1990 German GP at the Nurburgring, I felt the urge to write a few words on that special weekend. I started the year running my own 250 GP team with fairly standard TZ Yamahas but was drafted in as Kevin Schwantz’s team mate after Kevin Magee suffered a serious head injury at the second Grand Prix in Laguna Seca. With no testing and some major Spanish food poisoning I finished 8th at the next round in Jerez then followed that up with a 5th place in Misano. Next up was the Nurburgring and after qualifying on the second row of the grid, my crew chief Geoff Crust informed me he had a premonition of a race day rostrum finish. He also told me I better make it come true as he was already looking forward to a few post race celebratory refreshments. While I hoped Crusty was the new mystic meg, the truth was I would have been more than happy to buy the beers if I made it to the flag inside the top five. I had an outside chance of catching one major scalp as Wayne Rainey was riding with a nasty hand injury but I suspected adrenalin would see him through the day. I also followed Mick Doohan a fair bit in practice but he was beginning to find his feet on the Rothmans Honda so was going to be another problem. When the lights went out Schwantz and Rainey went straight to the front I while I hung in behind Doohan and Pier Francesco Chilli, and then it happened. Coming out of the bottom right hand hairpin, Doohan and Chilli simultaneously high sided in one of the most spectacular crashes of the season. I never liked seeing any fellow riders crash but I made the most of this early race gift and rode my 160bhp/115kg RGV hard to the flag, claiming my first podium of the season. We partied hard (win or lose we always did) that night and I went on to have my best ever season finishing fourth overall in the championship. After the last round in Australia, I finished second to Kevin at Sugo in Japan then won in Malaysia at another international race that KS didn’t attend. I also tested at Eastern Creek for the following season but then was flicked from the team for reasons that still remain a mystery. Hey Ho!

EICMA 2008: First Impressions
Mon, 03 Nov 2008I have had a little walk around checking out the preparations for the show. I haven’t seen anything that I haven’t already seen or heard about previously, but here’s a selection from three of the halls. Yamaha are the only manufacturer to use an industrial crane to place some of its bikes up on high rise stands.
