It was all going so well until that exhaust

Why Italian, rather than Nummer Eins?
Even bland can be a type of character

That actually all looks like it's been carefully measured up to ensure it fits together - the headlight fits that fairing, for example, rather than just being wedged in the hole. And the lines flow surprisingly nicely. I actually quite like the look of the four pipes all exiting on one side...
...though I'm not sure my ears would be so keen.
And the seat's not tan!

That looks really cool.
Nice work on the seat so often that’s what ruins some custom jobs.
Interesting that’s a modified R NineT Racer fairing .....he says as he wanders off to check them out.
Great to see the airbox being kept these just don’t look right with the pod filters.

Re: Numero Uno – Mans Custom Worx BMW K100
I like that - except for that exhaust. Sort that and it's a very definite yes.

Aesthetics or performance,I was never keen on the brick family,boxer lumps look way cooler,but they've taken something I was already disposed to dislike and made it quite presentable.
To my eyes,that shows some cohesion of design,someone with talent was at work here and it shows.

I really shouldn't like that, but I do, even though some bits annoy me. Another quality job though.
