Yeah, got your attention huh? :)
Found this on the Yahoo CR480 group.
Nice build but, probably a handful to ride.

From Gary, the owner and builder of this bike....

"Rich, did about 30 laps on the 480 at central today FANTASTIC!!!! Need to change a few things but the bike rip's...
Also rode the ossa, people `s comments were the bikes sound very different but not until I told them what the deal was
did they get it. So on the way home I stopped a the package store, walking out with my 6pack I see a person looking at the bikes
he says I had a cr250 just like that and I told him no he didn`t it`s a 480 he completely didn`t get it . At central I was asked many times WHY
would you do this ? Thease are racers asking this!!! knowbody gets it. So I guess people are sheep like
and follow. I can`t believe when there is effort involved everyone is out. I built this bike for ME!! and am VERY happy with the results
and can almost ride it on the pin everywhere!!! REALLY COOL!! There is no imagination out there any more REALLY SAD. Can`t wait for the ACR event."
