Fit for a f**kwitt............
I like the key ring though, although I'd like it more if the blue was a little nearer 5012. (RAL colours that is)

Exactly... Its a mess, and not cheap... but a running LC/YPVS hybrid from a dealer in Aus (even unregistered) costs pretty much that much (its 2499 on their fb page actually... and its rare as its a proper Bosozuku machine from Japan, when did you ever see another (why would you keep it like that! lol!). So... Its not your usual fayre for sure

Regardless, even with the bars and silly pipe, im in two minds with this bike... While I dont like its overall looks and its pretty badly put together, it is interesting as it was a huge craze back in the day in Japan yet these bikes are almost all gone now. This bike probably should be in a museum or something as when weve restored them all back to standard then bozosuku (sp?) craze will just exist in pics and youtube vids. Some may think its a good thing, but its was a huge piece of the Japanese RD scene and its kind of sad to have it erased.

hehe, that's just ace, I'd love to have that just to annoy all of those anoraks out there that you meet at bike gatherings etc, just imagine turning up on that, you'd certainly arrive to a mix of laughter and shock, in fairness there are a few trick bits on it and as you say, the bozosuku thing is a thing of the past and no doubt not many left at all, could be worth some mney done up well, especialy back to the Japanese out there that use to have one
love the tail peice, wouldn't mind something like that a project I am working on actually !

The tail pieces are very prevalent in Japan
Go to yahoo auctions and you'll see heaps of them
Also remember the old chopper push bike of be 70's ( showing my age here) and they used to have that long saddle and the bar work going vertical at the end, well the Japanese have taken the RD seat to a new level the whole of the seat back goes up vertical a bit like a sissy bar but the whole lot upholstered it goes up at least a foot
Now they look weirder than the bike you see here

Buy it and liberate the engine from the f**kwitts exhaust................But make sure you get the fairing that fits nearly vertical on the "handle bars" You never know.......it might be an unobtainum gamma fairing!!...............And the pet tank may be OK

Welll IMO the beet striped bit is actually interesting, So is the seat. The Duck tailed Rear And front fender are simply laughable . Pipes are Crap as well. Ape hangers are beauties. Plus it's got the Go-slo 250 motor, just to add insult to injury. So it's not just Alcohol that Aussies get reamed for these days?
