Yup, a Swedish guy with one of the most beautiful TRX based SF builds I have seen. Serious shit, a lot of specials and nice details. Sorry to disappoint You, the NOS bottle is used as expansion bottle for coolant.
A description of the bike can be found here (all in Swedish, but babelfish might be useful, or I can do a translation.)

Not my cup of tea at all (never have liked the TRX as a street fighter) but I can admire the work (and shit loads of money) that has been pumped into that.

Man, that lower fork bracket... Looks stronger than the whole frame put together!

I think I remember pictures of this in construction. Too bad he went the street fighter route, maybe ran over budget?

Bloody hell is that an annoying video or what?

It does bug me when people video or photograph stuff and don't give you the full picture. OK maybe that wasn't the point.

Anyway I like it, or at least what I can see of it.

Actually I think I've seen it before.

You're right - It made an appearance on the freebb site just before it crashed!

Here it is, i have to say i dont like the SF thing either , but this thing looks wicked with those wheels and forks and all the rest.

While the CBR tail doesn't look 'that' bad (looks like a soccer mom rear ended it a bit though) I think it's almost sacrilegious to put Honda parts on a Yamaha... Unless of course they are important (go faster) ones like my NSR throttle...

Agreed - I have gone out of my way to ensure that every mod on my bike is Yamaha

he could use the rear from a R1 '04, looks nice.

and yeah, mixing brand in the same bike just doesn't seem right

But i like this bike... maybe not the headlights plate but anyway...

well, i would give it a try that for shure! the bike really looks nice, with the fairing and even the street fighter way, and from what i see you guys talking... she seems fast and cool to drive! unfortunatly you don't see them that often here in portugal.... saw one ( the one i posted some weeks ago) and really loved it... it's a yamaha trx/suzuki/honda/mv agusta but really looks good... and it's loud as hell

Max, if you could send me yours for a test drive it would highly apreciated!

Fast, it's not...

Loud as hell it is! (Sorta makes up for the lack of fast...

)

The best part of it is the 'way' the power, or should I say torque comes on and how light it handles.

For me, smiles per mile is what it's all about.
