LOL...you're faster than me at the search feature, Mickey. I remembered this bike. He even had a write-up about it in Motorcyclist Magazine. I read that article and decided he was an idiot (my opinion, of course). Here's the quote that tipped the scales for me:
"My favorite thing is to get the ugliest bike out there and try to make it look neat. And that CB looks terrible from the factory! The OVER Racing swingarm I used here, and all the carbon fiber, all that came from the Japanese aftermarket, and it was really hard to locate. The handmade, limited-edition Yoshimura pipe is sourced from Japan, too. I hate the way it sounds—it's so quiet—so I'm going to cut it up and rebuild it with a high-mount Racefit can."
