Thanks. I’ll build whatever someone pays for... so hope time does tell for you. I’ll likely complete the frame run I have, and not likely do any others. That puts exclusivity at owning one of twenty-two total builds with my frame.

Looking at that graph over and over...
Horsepower is top speed. Whoopie.
However...
100+ ft/lb of TORQUE EVERYWHERE. That thing is going to be THE BEAST firing out of the hole and the apex!
A machine like that on Angeles Crest Highway would be PARADISE and on S6-S7 on Mt. Palomar, would be HEAVEN!

If you sell your existing stable of bikes, I bet you can afford it now.
Yep! The graph is 120 ft/lb off idle, which is accurate on our first pull so far. The graph is showing closer to 150 ft/lb at ~3500. It’ll be fun keeping tires on it, though Traction Control is an easy option.

HERETIC! BLASPHEMER! BITE YOUR TONGUE!
In truth, that would be possible except for the fact that I am a very middle-aged short, fat guy. That bike is svelte and sexy and lends itself to a fit and trim rider. Definitely not me anymore.
I still think it is sexy as hell though. Truly, a really impressive creation. KUDOS. I'm especially partial to the wheels. They are magnificent. The front end is a Masterpiece of Razor's Cutting Edge Technology. Beautiful Top Shelf Componentry that actually looks indigenous to this particular motorcycle. It fits the motif perfectly.
Overall, the BALANCE of the design and execution, is really something else.

I am a San Diego native who moved to the midwest 17 years ago.
I learned to ride like a banshee from hell on Mt. Palomar, Ortega Highway, Sunrise Highway, Angeles Crest, and all of those beautiful Southern California roads.
I miss them so much!

You may remember we criss-crossed, with a few year overlap. I landed in SD in ‘00. Wish we had some time to ride together out here. The early 2000’s were still epic riding times before the sprawl, traffic and 2-wheeled stupidity started.
I could have sworn I saw the front wheel lift.

Fake News!Guzzis can't wheelie.
Thanks Scott, off the PCH side, Las Flores Cyn in the SMMs though, yes.
