Wish I could say it's mine belongs to a good friend on another [mainly R3's] Web-site.

Basic Rocket 3 [2,300cc] with a tricky pipes, 4th bridge swinging arm, Speed Triple front end and rear end but it's probably arse-end as Moose says

I couldn't afford to change mine like that

£25 for the seat unit, plus painting/laquering, fairing done by me with some decent resin and a £5 off-cut of carbon fibre cloth As said though, not overly happy with the finish acheived on that, so gonna need doing again at some point

What is a streetfighter......always a good debate! For my penny's worth a 'fighter is just that,a bike built for hacking through the urban environment. So,wide bars/jacked up for flickability,few tweaks to gain more grunt (more important than top end),few suspension tweaks....basically anything nimble,punchy and fooking good fun to chuck around. My 'max aint a fighter cos its too fancy by far,and with the fat wheels it aint gonna handle that great either,its all about the looks with that'un.......
So,yeah,I'd class that TL as a 'Fighter Moose! Actually thats head of my list for me next bike.....

Not everything with wide bars/flickability/big grunt are streetfighters.
