It's got to be 1 for me, but you can see the quality in the other builds.

[ChrisW]

Well, seeing as you've taken number 1 I'll have number 3, cheers.

[Count Steer]

I think they're all rather nice although the last one is a bit challenging - it reminds me of those battery powered things like smoke alarms that take a 9v battery. On balance, it's No. 1 for me too.

Oh. If it's first come first served I'll take the MV.

Some nice bikes there,No.3 for me

I like bevel drive Ducatis, but #3 feels a bit wrong. The single shock conversion seems to have made a long bike even longer, or maybe it's the shortened seat unit... The fairing looks like it's half a size too big as well. It's supposed to be a track bike so I can understand the lack of a kickstart, but there's no electric start and they're buggers to push start. A fairly highly tuned engine won't help either.

So I'll have #1 too

What's goin' on with the chain on the last one?

Might have a neater run when then there's a fat bloke sat on it.

I can appreciate the quality in all of them, except #5. That just looks silly. #1 looks like it's on stilts, I like the look of #2, but haven't a clue what motor is hiding behind the bodywork - a Ducati of some sort I suppose. The fairing on #3 puts me off, so I guess it's a toss up between #2 and #4.

What's goin' on with the chain on the last one?

Long travel rear suspension with a fair bit of distance between sprocket and swinging arm pivot, when they are in line with the rear spindle the chain will have correct tension.

Common on off roady bikes.
