I know. I'm in a class of one here, but I've never got what people like about them. Shell suit paint job, hideous looking chassis and body work...

Re: interesting bikes found randomly..
I was at Aintree today watching the club racers,I wasn't expecting to see one of these in the paddock
The owner sponsors one of the racers,he rides the NR750 & it's done over 8K,nice to see that it gets used.I've never seen one other than in a showroom.It got a lot of attention.
