Back in the mid 2000’s, I wanted a modern version of the early 90s 1000S, seen HERE. Knowing they never would, I built two. My first wears 1100SS billet badges, and shown at the bottom of this post. It was sold on its very first ride in public, by the Producer of Ewan McGregor's Long Way Down and recently LW Up with the Livewires (don't get me started). So I built a second, and named it the V7-11, shown below. This bike essentially launched GTM, so I’ve nicknamed it GTM-0.5.
Both were based off of (non-hydra) Cal 1100s. The upgrade list includes, Matris’ $1k fork kit, YSS full-adjust piggyback shocks, $1500 Brembo front brakes, custom 17" Sun aluminum rims, GTM 2-1 SS Exhaust, V7R billet rear-sets on relocated position lower rails (re-powder-coated), fueling via custom mapped PC-V, lithium battery, custom ($$$$ matte metallic) paint, LEDs, Rizoma bars, risers & bits. I think it’s simply one of the best looking, running and handling big block Tontis out there.

Thanks, and nope. The 2V hemi has lower exhaust velocity, unlike the 8V engine.
It would be nice to stop talking about sound once and for all, as we'll all be on electric in less than a decade... then we'll really have nothing to talk about other than the Jetson's soundtrack and Spacely Sprockets.

God I hope not. I plan to be romping around Lake Como and the Alps making lots of melodious exhaust sounds!
