Without reading the whole thread I can see they've cut off a section of rear subframe...I wouldn't take a pillion on it.

Original headstock which is fixed at 24°. Great for stability but not the most nimble.

Suspect the singleside swingarm weighs similar to the original steel swingarm, but both heavier than the traditional aluminum swingarm used on the ST4s

Original engine is a 2 valve Paso derived engine with watercooling. It puts out 83bhp and 62lb of torque. It's strong but not powerful.

I feel sorry for it. They've turned it from a capable tourer into a non sportsbike.
