The bike was a gift from the band Guns N Roses to their manager in 1992. In 1998 I bought it and have had it ever since. The owner before me had some modifications done to it including: braided brake lines, custom fishtail exhaust pipes, the engine has been bored out and is FAST!, custom seat, chrome swing arm and pretty much every where else.. I had the bike custom painted in 2003 and also put on a diamond plate dash. the bike runs like a champ!
