The closer you look the weirder it gets

"Unfinished Project"
Even when it is finished , it won't be.

CBR 1000 donkey has enough power to get that thing to speeds where it would all go catastrophically wrong in a huge way......

There's not enough motor to fill the frame, looks odd.

There's a half foot of empty space between the engine and the swingarm pivot, looks.... odd.

Yep, that's someone that looks like they can build a bike, but either has no idea about design or was just stuck with the parts he had.
When you look at a proper bike builder, like Alan Milyard, then everything looks factory, he's thought about the final product and then worked backwards.

The swingarm also looks a tad short to me.

I know it's a 125 and available off the showroom floor, but I saw this today and thought it looked super.

Very different to the restricted race reps and off road things back in the early 90s.

Couldn't help but notice it had a basic wee air-cooled single engine so won't be fast, but it looked fast!

[KungFooBob]

If for some reason I was limited to a 125 again, I'd deffo want a Mondial HPS 125.

Three bikes in one and came out looking cool

Mind the gap, it's mahoosive, it's gonna squat under acceleration something rotten.
You'd be better off putting the Unitrak bodywork onto a Bandit, it'd be more work but the resulting bike would be better, or just having a Bandit and a Unitrak 1100 (though it can cost a fortune to rebuild a Z engine if you're mechanically incompetent)

I'm impressed someone managed to make a Bandit engine look small.

I'm surprised it's that much shorter than a GPZ1100 engine, both are 3 shaft bottom ends with gear primary drive.

That's one of them Buell singles they built for women that no one bought.

The Buell Blast.

I can't be certain, but I think that might be the ugliest motorbike EVER
