Put some fatbars on it and I'd be happy.

I'd insist on new tyres though, those have no tread left...

The standard bike looks better.
Which to be honest is pretty bad because the standard bike looks absolutely hideous.

I think it's a throw-back to a particular 1970s Italian style where bikes looked like a park bench with an engine slung underneath, which some people think is retro and trendy, but I think it just looks horrible.

There is a part of me that REALLY likes that and appreciates it. But not as a Custom 390. As a bike on it's own. Also as a bike that I couldn't ride - I don't think I could bend knees and back at the mo to be able to ride that!! LOL


For a bike to ride, the 390 Duke would be in front of that one :D
Life is for living. Buy the shoes. Eat the cake. Ride the bikes. Just, ride the bikes!! :bblonde:
