Looks very tidy BUT that frame is one of the strangest looking things I've ever laid my eyes on!

Sorry to say, but its definatley one of the ugliest frames I've seen - However, its not the look of the bike its how it rides - and I know all about that owning a Kona Dawg, its not a very good looker, but it shuts up the haters once you get on it and go for a ride!

for an 11 year old frame thats so clean bud, I love the way FS has evolved over the years!

does the top mounting bolt for the shock go through the shock?

no, that's the trunnion mount shocks

Looks great! A Dual Sport isn't it? Rode one back in 98 with longer travel shock mounts, they are incredibly plush. Shock activated from both ends, apparently a new thing, ha!

Check the Horst link too. That was the year Spesh patented it, so GT invented the Idrive.

Wow, it's so clean and the finish on the frame is so good, it looks like a new bike!

Well done!

It isn't the bonniest thing but it does have a certain something about it. Kudos on keeping the frame perfect.

Cool bike 8) that looks to be in amazing condition. Has it ever seen a trail?

I knew Supersonic would post sooner or later
and also has that frame even been used since '98!? very very squeeky clean, but not for long i should imagine.
