He's not gone for upside forks, instead he seems to have some new fangled reverse jobbies!

It's advertised as a 1986 - but it looks more like a 3en1, clocks rear end and swinger, the frame's 3en2 ... the brake master cylinder looks like 3TJ

He's swopped the legs over,whether or not he knows it,BUT he's put the left leg on the right side,and the right leg on the left. This is how early jap bikes were.

Do you think they were thinking, 'Hmmm... everyone does upside down forks, I think I'll do back to front instead!'
