Seat is a lot odd, and the exhausts are wrong

The tail section does look a bit hulking but otherwise that looks

Seems like they've done a proper resto on that bike,,getting the loan of a fairing so that they could copy it & replating the spokes

I really like it. At first sight the seat does look odd, and you'd have to be proper skinny to fit on (or in) it, but I get what they're doing - getting good aerodynamics by blending the airflow over the rider's back into the seat hump with minimal gaps. How the air exits the bike is just as important as how it enters.
