Is all you do is sit around all day copying and pasting images from the internet, to depict your boring life?

You could have at least taken some real pictures with a digital camera. :laughing0301:
 
Looking at the bike....
You were BUSY keeping that thing under control.
The reason I say that is that the tires and wheels are very small on that bike....it's not really made for what you did.

Shocks can help with some of the road vibration...but larger tires help more.

You will find that out if you, by looking solely at models with larger tires, go for test rides.
Your bike otherwise looks great....a real pocket rocket.

I've had a cruiser before. (Yamaha Silverado) and I thought the tires were too small on it for what cruising we did on it. (Appalachian trail).

At least you didn't load that bike with a whole trash can on it like the Honda Goldwings do.

550cc and a top speed rated at 110, about 125 in reality.
Very powerful for its kind.

Of that I have zero doubt.

Those kinds of speeds are possible with the light but strong frames.
The gear ratio and transmission is likely the reason for the wheel size. The motor can only take so much torque for so long....and the smaller wheels makes it possible.

I'm just getting old. Too old for bikes these days. But I've had several. The low swung nature of yours makes it corner like it's in a tube. Used to have one so low swung that I could grind off the foot pegs if I cornered too sharp. But that's been almost 40 years ago.
