    If you remember our post from last year about the amazing CBR1800RR by Cedric Smith, a Honda Gold Wing converted into a monster racer/sport touring machine with CBR bodywork and no small amount of garage engineering, there are a lot of much better photos available now. A comment from Marc, included a link back to Everett Powersports where Cedric works. It looks like they're rather proud of the work he does, and with good reason.

    Cedric, along with some other techs in their service department, have been turning out some pretty interesting mashups of frames and engines and bodywork of all types, like taking a 125GP racer and swapping in a CRF450 engine, or putting a Suzuki TL1000 engine in a flat track frame. They're great examples of, "Hmm, I wonder if we put this in there ..." thinking that resulted in the machines you see here. They have lots of photos over at the Everett Powersports website and they're well worth a look.

    I don't know what else Cedric has up his sleeve, but based on these combinations, it could be darn near anything. Thanks for the pointer, Marc!
