[MingtheMerciless]

Nice, like the black and red and no hideous gap at the rear.

[Mr. Dazzle]

Love the red.

The single shock conversion doesn't look like it'd be up to much.

[cheb]

Your taste is improving.

i dont like it, just thought it worthy of a thread

[cheb]

Where's the deadpan smilie

[Tricky]

A good example of form over function- lots of aspects would make it awful to ride I reckon, but I love that colour red, lush

[Scotsrich]

Presumably it’s never going to be out in the wet but a good effort nevertheless.

[DefTrap]

I like it - mean looking and uncomplicated.

[Taipan]

Very nice indeed! We don't need no stinkin' fork travel!

[Potter]

Do these people all go to the same art college in London?

Chop the rear end off a bike, put a nice radius on the downpipes and add K&Ns.
It's like the student mushroom stroganoff of bike design.

And it's always an air-cooled inline 4 lump so they can minimise the difficult bits like plumbing. 'Specials' by numbers.

[Le_Fromage_Grande]

It's a nearly, I like the overall shape and concept, but there are so many things I'd change the result would be a different bike

And yet so many get it so wrong.

And this one is going to be pretty much unrideable anywhere off vertical (as shown by the head on view).

Still, colour is ok (similar to my car )
