I'd be scared to ride that, but make it a snowmobile and I'm game.

The price is reasonable for the right buyer, but I have no idea who would want something like that.

The power exceeds the chassis.

It's not street legal.

It's not set up for dirt, nor does it seem capable of being set up for dirt.

So in the end, it's a Hayabusa with training wheels that you cannot legally drive on the street.

If you put knobby tires on, it looks like it could be fun on dirt.

Crackpipe - It's a 700 ATV with a swingarm. Not even street legal, and useless offroad.

I flag shit like that.

Hayabusa swingarm does not deserve a Hayabusa title.

"The power exceeds the chassis."

It's still a 700.

With a 1300cc engine?

I read the ad. It says it's a 700 with a Hayabusa swingarm.

Where did it say 1300?

Raptor 700: 46.9 crank horsepower

First Generation Hayabusa: 173 crank horsepower

Somehow, I don't think the brakes, suspension, etc. were set up for that...

Even if it was a 700 chassis, I doubt it can withstand the torque from the 1,300 cc engine.

Personally, I am not seeing it as the Hayabusa's powerband is way too high. I could see it being a blast in the sand dunes, though. Although as-is, the suspension doesn't really look like you could jump it...

Read the ad again. I think it's still a 700. The only Hayabusa part listed is the swingarm.

here is a 2013 special edition Yamaha street raptor 700 totally custom. has a hayabusa swingarm 360 rear wheel with custom made front wheels

That's still a 700. If it was a Hayabusa engine I would agree with you.

You had to play the Will.I.Am. card didn't you?

Now anything is possible.

The very definition of cp... Had to be on crack to want it or build it and certainly to ask 15k for it afterwards.

Agreed, completely useless. It's not even pretty look at either...

It's kind of cool and interesting, but totally worthless for anything other than burnouts. CP all day. I wouldn't pay 1/4 of that price.
