I hate that sorta streetfighter

I believe fighters should have a ratty look about them...

Thats my opinion

many of us dont like the "i just dragged this out of a canal then thrown on a petrol bombfire for 4 hours." look, i do granted special ones that look well thought out. Street fighters are about looking and being aggressive down to the last bolt in my book, i'd have stock body work and a high powered engine anyday thank you Thumbs Up Very Happy

I think if I feel the need for more power I,ll look for a 900 rather than squeeze it out the 600.
But if anyones got any ideas I,d love to hear them. Thumbs Up Smile
Also any mods would be appreciated. Idea
