How do I get in touch with this mod-genius?

This man is my idol. The astute and subtle modifications he made to his motorcycle are astonishing!

Let's admire the fine craftsmanship and efficiency of those mods. I think we should all learn a lesson or 2 from this guy.

Flickr: ShervinRRR's Photostream

Some highlights.

Shiny brake discs.


Because titanium is for pussies. Lightweight aluminum frame, remove chunks.


GP-style exhaust. I'm not making this sh!t up, he really does call it GP-Style.


Whatever the *uck that's supposed to be or look like.


Of course, lightweight sprockets are totally FTW


Just watch the flickr. All 104 pages.

Do my eyes decieve me? Did he CUT a hole into the frame of the bike?

Please tell me no.

Not just one. 4. All the way through. And I quote, "Better hp, better torque, better mpg, less vibration more top speed."

I love the engineering behind these mods. This man is brilliant. I'm surprised nobody thought of this stuff before!

He's obviously had some brain damage... Probably the result of some previous weight saving mods!!!
