must just looked strange to me cause im so used to seeing front brakes. i think if he took the rotors off, he should have taken the calipers off too. he'd be just as much of a squid, but at least he'd have that nice clean front look
squids: make us laugh, fill up our hospitals, and when fried make a delightful apetizer

$50 says he just got the new lightweight front wheel and didn't throw on the rotors is all. removing the calipers is a pain too cause that removes all the brake setup when it's more then likely temporary. either way it's 110% dumb of him to do, especially on a road like Deals Gap

how is he riding without front brakes?

Also, that just looks like another GSXR wheel rather than some light wheel. It's the same design as the back only a different color.

it's a chopp i tell you.

1. Swing Arm is way to short.
2. What's up with the Right turnsignal?
3. Gas tank is funky. The light isn't hittig it correctly, dosn't flow with the pic.
4. The left Mirror and Windscreen are angled incorrectly.
5. The Exhaust Can sticks out further then the bike.
6. what bike has 2 Chains?

EDIT: Is it me, or are his handle bars really that fucked up, shouldn't his arms be a little closer together?

Does killboy even photoshop any of his stuff?

1. Swing arm looks fine to me
2. Right turn signal looks normal to me
3. Gas tank looks like it should to me
4. I don't even see the left mirror, and the windscreen looks normal to me
5. If the bike were upright i think the exhaust can would be even with the tail of the bike, the angle makes it look longer.
6. I don't see a second chain, i think what you're seeing is the kick stand.


compare

*EDIT* now i see the left mirror. Again, looks fine.
I also notice that there's no front fender.

I told you from the start it isn't a chop. Killboy doesn't chop anything. Straight from his camera to your monitor

Or tie a rope to the pillion, and use the passenger-anchor method.
