yep I don't use it for riding, but don't want to toss it. It's still good for low speed stuff and stupid human tricks.Helmets only have a shelf life of 5 years, trash it
Isn't that basically what you just sold?Remove the seat and replaced with a handmade custom in real leather. Cut the rear of the frame to get rid of the passenger crap and install a frame loop. Fenders go bye-bye. Different headlight, handlebars. Turn signals gone. Relocate the license plate. Remove the two side panels and clean up whatever is behind them. Engine cases polished. Carbs synchronized. Maybe open exhaust. All four separate pipes.
The handle bar position is just about perfect on those. I like the idea of a solo seat, but replace the passenger with a parcel shelf and add hard bags. Kinda like the police version but without the faring. Something you can ride on all day through the hill country or take on trips.
