Looks awesome, but is it just me or does it look like it's sitting too low at the back??

other people have said that big_ham. i think the 748/916 etc series were naturally quite low in the tail anyway (road going), plus mine was set up for pillion riding with a new shock in june - since which time ive put the mono tail on which i think explains it. at its next service im going to get it jacked up to a more aggresive height.

and thanks for the good comments Dance!

Having given it a second look - there's something very special about a single-sided swingarm....
