Feet forward controls and clipons.

I'd love to see a normal sized person try to ride it.

I sort of like it, I'd have to change the riding position, by its sort of cool, it's very early 1980s Harley

They put Ohlins on it and upgraded the brakes! :lol: :lol: :lol:

THe trouble with blacked out bikes is that they are always hiding some horrors. In this case it's everything.

And that's before you even begin to ride it. Feet and arms forward. Heavy front end. Mud and grit going up the back of your jacket.
If you were 100% cool, you'd lose 50% cool just standing next to it, let alone sitting on it in your rectal examination position.

But at least they seem to have installed a toaster in the tank. So you can always stop for a cry and some toast.

At least the seat isn't brown... But how any normal size/shape person could actually ride it, I have no idea.

But if they're prepared to let me have the Ohlins forks and shock at a knock down price we'll say no more about it.

It's an interesting looking thing,maybe as a house ornament or something. I very much don't like the riding position.
