Very cool, looks like a great bike for the twisties! Those oil coolers look great, actually thought it was a modified springer front suspension.

I like the idea, but what are those springs? Appears to still be telescopic forks, and the “springs” almost look like outboard reservoirs for the shocks, but painted with stripes. Or maybe they’re just cosmetic? IDK, seems weird to have springs next to telescopic forks.

the ribbed cylinders flanking the headlight are extended oil coolers. Custom built by Mayerl,

Very cool bike, however, what’s left of the 86? Everything has been changed including entire drive train.Hmm
