2 Stroke 800cc shoehorned into a zzr1200. Hmm.... Would you ride it? Hell, let alone buy it?

Its an interesting concept even thought the execution is a "bit" redneck...
I'd say... no.

800cc two-stroke.. that would be brutal. I'd ride it (assuming the workmanship was good) - would not own it.

Just what I want is a 03 ZZR1200 that is heavy, has lost one gear in the tranny, and only has 100 HP

Of the criticism for the ZZR I've heard, lack of a motor is not one.

2-stroke ownership... I've done my time. NO thank you.
Didn't say I would own it, I did say I would ride it though. I will ride pretty much anything once.

Note: Successful bidder agrees to execute a mutually acceptable Agreement of Sale prior to transfer of title to buyer
I guess that proviso will include a statement that it is not the sellers fault if it blows up and kills the new owner.

It had plastic so therefore it was a crotch rocket. Just like my B12S and Breva Sport.

I'd prefer a CR500 engine in a GL1800 chassis. Seems a better fit.

That motor has a power band of a Rottweiler. Wide open.

All that work and 700 miles on it was enough. I appreciate the effort still.

The wife probably called it gone when the washing machine died from too much fecal matter being run through it.
