I'll take 1, 4 and 7 (all for different reasons) but 8 gets the 'Most Utterly Bonkers' award. :D

The electric bike would probably be the most useful day to day. :thumbup:

Oh, and thanks for posting all these custom threads over the year. :)

At least they’re all in one place so it’s only one can of petrol to make them go away😂⛽️

I really like interesting bikes but the list is shameful. At least 4 of those are pretty much totally unrideable (and that's ignoring general practicalities) a few more are rideable but just gash. The rest I'm ok with I suppose. 1, 4 and 5 at least look finished.

Overall the problem seems to be that boundaries are being pushed with no clear direction in mind, like an haute couture fashion show where the poor bastards model potato-sacking bobble hats and clothes made out of transparent vinyl.

PS That swingarm on the electric bike is one of the best looking I've seen. You could put that on the Hazan bike in the other thread as that one is, for me, the weakest design link in the whole package.

LOL. Bikers are a bunch of boring old farts shocker. 'I don't like that, it doesn't look like bikes did when I was 16'.

I don't think so, I'll happily buy a bike from any decade if it looks ok, including brand new ones, I'm not against new fashions, just the ones that make you look an utter cvnt.

Agreed,I'm all for individuality & self expression,but you'd be subject to an awful lot of ridicule turning up on some of those creations up there,that's if you could ride them of course..
IMHO the only decent one there is the electric bike.That Ducati looks like a homage to something made by Enfield,is that a improvement over the bike it started out as? In defence of the builder at least you could ride it but I've seen better looking Enfields...
Just my opinion

I think that's a reasonable test, what would you like to turn up at the pub on, for these sorts of bikes anyway. Still only 3 for me, the rest are mickey takers.

That ^

Imagine turning up to the pub in the 80's on #2, you'd be laughed out of the car park.
The ramp at the carpark entrance would keep that and #1 out quite effectively :)

Just think how awful the rest must have been, not to make the cut.
