Makes me think of Quasimodo. Considering the fuel is in the frame, that faux tank is pretty dominant. :)

Completely bonkers though, so it's a :thumbup:

I imagine it's nice, if I could actually see the effing thing.

Always liked the look of buells but up close they're tiny.

I quite like it, bar the leftover sheet metal face.

Might have stopped them putting the exhaust on back-to-front as well...

It's not enormously different to a stock XB12S really is it?

Crop down the seat even more, fit stupid lights, take the black plastic off and call it done.

I'd take the stock bike all day long over the modified one.
