Random inspirational bikes

Some shots of a sweet Dual sport swingarm shovel sent to us from our buddy in Ireland: STUKA!

Here you go... my buddy Stuka in Ireland is building this Suzuki GS powered chopper.
Over there they call it a GSX since it has 4 valve heads. Here in the US, we just had other letters added and the end of the name to denote the 4 valve heads.
(I had a GS750ET for instance... the ET was the 4 valve designation for that model)
Looking good man! Keep it up!
LIGHT, FAST, SKINNY, GROUND CLEARANCE, HANDLES GOOD, GOOD BRAKES

My chopper manifesto

I do not accept the assumption that a rigid framed motorcycle cannot go fast, stop quickly, or handle well. I want my choppers to perform above the social accepted performance standard for rigid framed motorcycles; (that is to say: BAD)
These are the standards I have set before myself to achieve with said choppers:

My choppers must be able to Evade, Pursue, and allow me to survive.
My choppers must be light.
My choppers must be skinny and be able to navigate tight traffic with ease.
My choppers must go fast, accelerate hard, stop well, handle good, and do so without fusing my vertabrae.
My choppers must not scrape hard parts when leaning.
My choppers are not bar hoppers.
My choppers are not non-functioning scuplture.
My choppers must function like a real, useable vehicle.
My choppers must be a valid mode of transportation.
My choppers must not be built for other peoples enjoyment or entertainment.
My choppers must be built for me and my preferences and standards alone.
My choppers must not be fragile.
My choppers must be able to hop curbs, hit potholes, skid, wheelie, do burn outs and crash without breaking.
My choppers must be able to be ridden on all sufaces (Pavement, dirt, gravel, snow, sand, mud)
