As he says, there's no other one like it in the world.... FOR GOOD REASON!!!!

Why was Jonzi looking for a Hog Chop?

The seller is quite correct, it is "Gulf colours!", and they look good and subtle on a Ford GT40 or a Porsche 917........but all over on a V Max??????

The description text is nearly as loud as the paint on the bike, at least, as noted, the tyres are rubber compound!

[don_matese]

Pass the eye bleach...

[scrapps]

wrong on sooo many levels

[slob]

never mind the colo(u)r, just think about the v-boost(tm)

[Darren69]

That is actually quite painful to look at.

[utopia]

Mmmmm ........ subtle.
And really rather "grown up".

:eek:

Obviously nothing!

What about the 18 bidders? :eyepopping:

[Mr Gazza]

Thanks for sharing that...Makes my Monster look much less gay...

The front engine mounts on that are an absolute treat. :eyepopping:

What's the small chain on the small sprocket driving?

[slob]

Chain tensioner

[Dirty]

Chain tensioner

Ah, thanks. How does that work?

[Darren69]

It just pushes up on the chain to prevent the massively long chain from thrashing about. You might see similar on moto x bikes with long chains

[utopia]

I'm not sure that it is a chain tensioner jockey actually.
Looks to me like the chain goes all the way around it.
I'd say its more likely to be on a jack-shaft between the gearbox sprocket and the rear, possibly in order to correct an offset between the sprockets.
Another possible reason would be to shift the drive sprocket nearer to the suspension pivot point, but I haven't worked out exactly what's going on with the rear suspension so its hard to tell.

[Darren69]

Oh yeah, there are actually 2. I didn't see the other one. No idea what thats all about.

[Dirty]

Yes, I thought I could see a chain going all around it which was why I was confused! Still it's all relative. I'm far from being as confused as the owner of the V Max :)

[Dukedesmo]

as the owner of the V Max :)

:eek: Something to confess?... :D

[Dirty]

Not in this lifetime! Or in that colour!

Im wondering how large the turning circle of the chop is, cos on initial looking, the exhausts look like they might foul the rear of the front mudguard, reducing the ability to turn. But I am impressed with use of the old 'fire extinguishers' (if thats what they are) for a fuel tank.

[Darren69]

Is it me or do the exhaust resemble a question mark? as in wtf????

[Saint aka ML]

You guys miss the point. The way he made it no matter what his wife says, no matter what the situation is he will be telling the truth when he says there is no one right now who wants to buy it ;)
