friend's bike

^ What he said, and I agree the stretch is too much, pain to turn, and holy shit lotta power, an unexperienced rider would eat it on first launch.

stretch too much? they do that so that they can get in on the throttle. With bikes, you have not enough traction and light up the tires, or you have traction and have to work your way into the throttle. Extending that bike lets him nail it assuming that tire doesn't light up. No shit that bike isnt for the twisties, but if he wanted something for that he would have got a cheap 600.

To me it's just the massive gap between the tire and the tail that turns me off.

Hope he doesnt intend on riding it too much.. Safely atleast.. Its stupid as fuck to pull of one side of the front brake just so you can see the wheel better.. Otherwise its a nice bike i wouldnt have stretched it like that but o well..
