A thread was posted with a link to a guy that was on a dirt bike that jumped off a ski jump. He also rode it down a bobsled chute. In many of the shots the bike had 17s with sport bike tires. Supermotard or sumo for short. Several manufacturers make bikes like these that are plated for the street.
Problem is, I really like 2 stroke over 4. You see where I am going with this. Hence the name "pipe dream".
Picked this up Monday. Long story goes with the acquisition of the bike, because I am an idiot.:bang head: Step one complete. Not sure if I will be able to wiggle a street title out of the Indiana BMV for this frame. Been doing some reading and it seems doable with some persistence and a bit of luck. If not, then the search for a dual sport donor frame that comes with a streetable title.
This will be a SLOW process. Hell, I may loose intrest. But I've been wanting to do one for a long time. Pushed in the garage and haven't taken any other pics yet. I rode it and I is tired, neglected, and ugly but it is complete and it still pulls like a tractor. Putting in 4th at idle in a bean field and twist the wrist, I'm digging trenches NOW, long and deep.
