Very cute and nicely engineered. A bit OTT in the suspension department but, why not? :thumbup:

The mirrors have to go, obvs and 'City Bike'...with slicks on. :crazy:

nice details i guess but the tyres are far too big, it should have super skinny commuting tyres - half the fun is ragging a tiny light bike with not much grip and feelling like you are on a hot qualifying lap, but at 40mph

A 'city bike'... with slicks?

At least it's got side panels, but the passenger pegs are cripplingly high.

Perfect for a youngster on the back though. They have a few in Indonesia. :D

That's a well-sorted looking little thing. The tail unit's especially impressive.

Bike looks factory, but...slicks??

Is there a international shortage of pipebenders?

Other than the exhaust, I like that a lot
