A 'special'.

Looks like some kind of Tmax with a lot of bits taken off it & an R6 rear end put on, don't know what the forks are off. the front mudguard is off a nexus & the headlight is either a suzuki or a Honda CBF600/1000.

I wonder if it's a special based upon the Yamaha V-Max. Looks as if it might have the V4 engine (1700cc) with those V-Max induction scoops.
Probably not ugly enough for the 'Ugly Bunch'! :lol:

Can't see any relationship to a V-Max, Bulldog Special perhaps?

Hmmmm take something useful, hack it around, make it look not only appalling ugly and impractical, but quite like several other streetfighter bikes!!
I'm struggling to see the point...

Took you a while, the front mudguard is from a TMax not a Nexus.


I think is a well thought out change and if I had the money to own two TMax's one of them would be like that, because it would be so much lighter and great fun in spring summer autumn. The only part I don't quite like it the blank spot under the seat on top of the engine which could be used for storage given the right heat protection.

(Sorry, in Rant mode)..if you want a street fighter special, why not start with a Triumph Speed Triple or something?????
