Post pictures of your Motorcycle!

It is Bumpus. The one in Jackson actually. I'm on tapatalk so I can't see location, but what area are you from? I'm surprised to see someone recognize Bumpus.

I can understand that. Here we have a good long riding season so it's worth it to own a motorcycle. I couldn't imagine having a short riding season.

 

Murfreesboro. We have a Bumpus here too. I've been to the one in Jackson a few times while passing through.

 

Here is the bike I am working on now (1975 Norton 850). This is it before I tore it down, it is going to have a killer motor in it when it is finished.

 

Nice looking Norton!

 

did you make that hardtail conversion, or is it commercially available?

 

oh yaaaa


trying to upgrade to a 636 i have my eyes on, but cant do it until this thing sells

 

I made mine but you can buy them. Here is the first site that I could think of that sells them. Click here. There are a few other places that sell them also.

 

Did you plastidip that bike?

 

yup, had it done for a while, got tired of all the black so i peeled the gas tank and the front fender to give it that blue/black two tone

 

I think you would have more luck selling it if you peeled the whole thing, imo

When I see flat black bikes, I just start to think that the owner is covering up road rash (not that you are, lol)

 

well i am, lol, the first owner dropped it and its got some nasty scratches, and now you can hardly tell there there unless your looking for them. i mention it in my ad though, and even mention that ill peel it back to blue if they would like it that way. had a few low balls so far but trying to get my asking price so i can upgrade to a 636

 

I see

You will love the 636!! Just make sure it doesn't pop out of second gear under hard acceleration. Ones that have been abused will typically have that problem.

 

that is why i sold my Busa it would pop out of 2nd gear its the only gear that isnt backcut and is a common problem on the Busa's

 

Yeah yamaha had the same problem with the 99-02 R6. Repairs for the 636 get very expensive because of labor. Everyone on the ZX forums that have that problem are dropping $1000 for parts and labor.

 

Yeah iirc the fix for the busa was like 1300 to pull backcut the gear set...so i sold it instead of putting that into it although i wish i still had my busa lol

 

my daily driver:

 

Here's my CBR600RR after I made a few little personal touches to it a couple weeks ago.

 

Nice 05, carbon yoshi with carbon cone, gregs flush mounts, rim tape... simple and clean

 

almost bought a GasGas 450SM a few weeks ago but couldn't bring myself to do it... the search continues

 

this is me and my girl after V&H shortshots, smoked out turn signals and some drag handlebars, loving it
