Just thinking about the chain slap on this one makes me crindge.
Another thought... you probably have about 330 links of chain there. You're looking at $600 if you buy quality chain every 20K miles.

Wtf?! That's insane.
Surely the worst sin with that bike is that the chrome-a-like coating on that swingarm just looks incredibly plasticky and cheap. That look isn't to my tastes, but I've got to admire the tinkering skills and persistence of whoever did the work.....EXCEPT when they show a complete lack of aesthetic judgement by having that horrible shiny finish
I've got a Japanese scooter mag at home that shows loads of scooters which have been treated to that "stretch" style. It appears to be a really popular look over there, for people who mod their scoots. They tend not to be so keen on shiny plastic finishes, but they do have a taste for awful shiny cushioned seats.
