True but from the pics, I shouldn't have any problems stripping the terminator stuff off and getting the bike back to a street-able condition. Hell, or I can just part it out.

Of course, the question remains:

Not sure about ugliest, but the hardest to figure out which end is where and what is what. That first picture I can't even tell what angle it was taken from or is even of.

This person has to be a nut job!
