Just put it in a ditch and set fire to it.
"Of all the stories you told me, which ones were true and which ones weren't?"
"My dear Doctor, they're all true."
"Even the lies?"
"Especially the lies."

Windy!
I like it, so there. At least it's something slightly more original.

That 5th picture does look a bit like a breeze block with wheels on.
The more I looked at it the sorrier I felt for what was once a nice bike.

Another bike designed to look at rather than ride.
Imagine riding that around the M25 in pouring rain.

Apart from the high level exhaust I like it, I bet it would be great fun to ride but hugely impractical.

Is the exit hole of that exhaust only about an inch across? I'm guessing it's some kind of baffle, but looks incredibly restrictive.

Actually I've changed my mind, I think it should have @Skub's slug plague set upon it.

I deplore the lack of wind protection.
