First glance, I liked it.

Second glance, that 007 thing has got to go and the ground clearance isn't a lot so it's not going anywhere very scramble-y.

Plus point for the mirrors. (Not being bar-end).

Minus point for yet another brown seat.

Yep - swap out the brown seat and it would make a nice ride.....

Continental TKC80 tires for a purposeful Scrambler look

Bikes are for riding not just looking at, about the only thing that would be any good for would be beach race posturing, just like in the photos.

Not sure about the nickel-plated frame, or the exhausts, really. 007 can do one, as can the brown seat but underneath all that there's a bike that would be enjoyable to ride. But does it really need the knobbly tyres? If it will spend its life on Margate beach, perhaps, but I doubt that will be the case.

And some of the bumf in the press release is worthy of Pseud's Corner...

I think that with a pair of Tourance tyres, a can of leather dye and some gaffer tape over the 007, I'd happily have one in the garage.

Meh

Having seen @ajlog's standard version, I much prefer that to this tart's handbag. Every change they've made has been for the worse.
