As far as I can make out they're a Russian outfit, so why is the armpit mirror on the right? (Not that it matters, as he says it's just stainless steel and can only see silhouettes in it).

Nice enough, if very noisy bobbers are your thing.
Doubt is not a pleasant condition.

Other than the handlebars that they nicked off a French ladies shopping bike, I quite like it.

I actually quite line the bars, it's the rest of it that upsets my sensibilities.

It doesn't seem significantly worse than most Harleys to me.
Damned by faint praise I guess.

I like it from a visual stand point, but having owned a 1200 sportser, it's a definite no from me.
