I was thinking the same thing. There were a couple of old British makes that had a fore and aft boxer engine, Douglas, and Williamson.
Harley did too IIRC, and probably Indian, in the US.

It's interesting,that much is true.
I can't make up my mind if I like it or hate it. Needs flesh viewing for confirmation.

CUT TO FIT: RSD BUILD A HONDA MONKEY FOR WEE MAN
Honda Monkey built by RSD for Wee Man
Customization can be about aesthetics and performance, but it can also be about making a motorcycle fit its rider better. This wild Honda Monkey from Roland Sands Design rolls all three approaches into one, with a build list to rival bikes twice its size.
The Californian workshop built the Monkey for skateboarder, stunt performer and Jackass star Jason ‘Wee Man’ Acuña. Jason used to ride mini-motocrossers as a kid, but he wanted to get back on two wheels—and this time on the street. So he approached RSD to build a bike that would fit his frame.

“We are a non-denominational motorcycle company,” says shop boss, Roland Sands. “If it has two wheels and can be improved in the eyes of the owner and the RSD crew, it’s a project we are willing to take on. Jason wanted something that was geared for the pavement, and built especially for him both in function and aesthetic. Now Jason is not your average biker: he’s got a normal size torso with short legs and short arms.”

I do like a Z1000 Mk2, I'm not keen on the USD forks or Moto GP style exhaust
