But exceptionally exectuted ? Every fixing, fastening, attention to detail, every line is precise, every panel is perfect... ?

It's mad, I love it.

I hope that front brake arrangement works but surely it's overbaked!

You could easily overcook it into corners yes.

Mostly, the right hand side of the fairing is a bit wank, as are the forks sticking out the top of the yoke.

Great for burning body parts or getting things trapped in other things.

I have to say I rather like it. Apart from the exposed primary chain... that's just lethal.

I like it but that chain needs covering up and the exhausts are going to melt you.

There's no shielding at all the on the exhaust. Best not ride it in shorts.

The carbs are also VERY exposed....not even a bit of mesh to stop stones getting in.

Kick start quadrants will munch careless shoelaces.

As Spin says, the primary drive is a bit sketchy!

I couldn't in good consciousness release that on the public :D

A cool bit of tin bashing work and a motorcycle as an art form,rather than anything practical. As such it's fine by me.
