i thought of doing this along time ago also, but my reasoning was to make it FASSSTTTTT!!!!!! if you guys say theyre not very reliable when modded out, i wouldnt do it. id be highly po'ed to get smoked by a cub with half the cost of a rz500 shee.
but if you want to do something different and turn lots of heads i say go for it. be sure to post pics and keep us updated.
