Lest you think TWC is an all-Suzuki operation, Dantzler brought a Honda along to this party--Meyon Hart's super-sano 1999 Honda CBR900RR. Painted a deep candy green (by Dantzler, of course), the bike is accented with a lighter candy-green checkerboard on the main fairing. Setting off the mile-deep paintwork are de rigueur acres of chrome, here applied to the frame, swingarm, fork legs, wheels and shock spring. The bike wears custom TWC chromed billet grips that frame matching switchgear, footpegs, brake calipers and hangers. The engine internals have been left alone, but power is boosted slightly courtesy of a bank of 39mm flat slides and a full Yoshimura RS 3 exhaust system. For an exotic accent, Hart had the stock seat recovered in ostrich skin, along with the passenger perch.
Up front, Hart's bike uses a Honda F3 17-inch wheel, while out back resides a cut seven-inch stocker fitted with track-style bead locks. This allows a huge 190/55 V17 Shinko tire to be used for easier hookups at the strip. The front right brake caliper and rotor have been removed, and flush-kit turn signals have been attached to the shiny bodywork. Nice details like the chrome engine cases, bar ends and frame protectors complete Hart's bike. Tight!
