That's what 4T exhaust pipes should look like.

It's a no from me. Too retro and a bit of a big red blob (and that's why I am not a motorcycle journalist).

Lose the fairing, bang on a set of motocross bars and fighter it.

The tail unit should be slightly curvier rather than folded.

I like it apart from the radiator, which appears to only allow a inch of front wheel travel

As Cheb says, the zorst looks good in a shitload of work gone into it sort of way.

That looks surprisingly good for something with a modern engine though.

It's never gonna look right with liquid cooling, but it could be a lot worse.

Like the big Cheese says, the Rad is wrong, it needs a slimmer longer one making - that one looks stock?
Apart from that I really like it, it could even take side panels a la MV 350...

If it had a full fairing like that 350 it would look better

Jeez, I said I like it apart from the radiator, tbh I actually really like it, but think it would the radiator is an eye sore and it would be better with the 800 triple - I associate MV with triples more than 4 cylinder bikes.

The 800 Brutale based one is rather nice, the exhausts are lovely and it has wire wheels

Nobby's is just plain gorgeous. More pics and details please
