like the forks better on this one ...
why do they always seem to run out of steam when it comes time for the front fender ...?

Nice.
Here's a link to a fun XV project over on SBR, done a few years back.

I like how the XV engine looks. I like how the engine is so prominent in these builds and I like how the engine isn't cradled. I like these XV builds. Can't answer the fender question though, maybe these guys have never ridden on a wet road, I know when my scooter didn't have a front fender, it was a steady sheet of water hitting me square in the face

Cary and I were riding up on Hwy 35 and 9 yesterday in the rain, so front fenders were on my mind ...

That rear tire looks like it came off an old A.J Foyt era Indy car.

bias plies, forever ...
hear tall tires are "part of the suspension system."
nice call, sweet parts!
guess they'll sell you a 350 with no front fender
and no front brake, at all.

I get it. I think I would too.
But I'm guessing trying to roll over a dime on the road would bring that thing to a sudden stop. A rock would send you over the bars.

What a beauty. Don’t make seats like that anymore.

Why?
Why? It's in "Park" mode and no need for a jiffy stand.
I'm going with pneumatic vs hydraulics.
Regardless, still a nice looking scooter.
