Aha.....!! The clincher is the cable running around the leg to the ( invisible) caliper....I take it back...it must be drybaulic...but why go to thst much trouble to make it look like cable?

It's a braided hose, that goes into a protective rubber sleeve, the leaves the sleeve and disappears behind the fork leg where I assume it joins connect to the calliper.

The disc is also thinner than a spoke. A hydraulic caliper would probably bend it stopping that weight. It looks like something off a mountain bike

Seeing as we're doing a repurposed 4 cyl Honda,how about this

Jamie Robinson has a channel called Moto Geo & he calls this CBR600 his 'Mad Max' machine.Obviously with his talent he''s more chance of surviving taking it off road than me!
Here's a short video of him riding it,that CBR's no show pony!

Not entirely 'internet' but Fartbook.

Still got the Weeksy sticker on it. I remembered that @weeksy purchased it from a friend of mine but forgot he sold it on to another friend of mine!

Need to be nearer the front axle. Maybe bolted to the mudguard?

Kind of looks a bit like an XT500. I like it.

He's a good ambassador for RE.
If you watch his channel he's done some mad mileage on his 450 Himalayan.

I've just been comparing it to a standard Guerrilla.

I reckon hand guards, rad guards, high level front mudguard and those number board style side panels and the XTish paint are all he's done.

RE should deffo sell something like that as a factory model.

In a world of Temu/Aliexpress tat,this is probably the nicest looking Blandit I've seen,maybe ever.
It’s about 25kg lighter than stock with 50% more power,apparently.
