Very nice!
Surely could have done better with the rear pipes though!

The previous owner should be prosecuted for crimes against good taste and shot at dawn.

Oh Hybrid us rg boys have feelings too!!! Lol .I do think the rear area could have been done better and a nicer ductail that the pipes tuck under. There are some nice modded ones done but its hard to do much at the back without ####ing a frame. you would be better doing a rgv frame and leave the rg parts stock to sell with the bike. rgv has nicer swingarm better frame forks wheels, everything. and they are cheap at the moment and there are kits to do it.He did a lot of things that looked good though on this build I must admit.

I like it , think its rather cool however agree the rear pipes could have been tucked under the body a bit better.

I like the look of standard Rg's couldnt afford one so I bought a slabby instead I dig the look of 80's bikes.
