At first sight it makes sense, Z900RS, sort of retro version, and old bikes had twin shocks.

BUT original twin shocks did NOT have piggy back reservoirs on them! Nor were they painted in lairy colours.

I'd like to think it's a typo, but it is a old and shit, so maybe not.

You could buy an uncrashed R1 for less than that.

Why did they not sling a Vliant engine in ? 12bhp as opposed to 8? Or even a Viceroy at 15+?

I've re-read the description, they've welded in a spine which the stock NTV didn't have.

I bet it's well flexy tho'
