There's a few non-60s touches like twin disks but no bar-end mirrors or brown seats. :D (Also I don't think the hole behind the engine was typical in the 60s was it?).

Wonder what you'd get if you asked to see what they will look like in the future?
I'm guessing you could properly mess with the AI by flooding the net with images of 90s sportsbikes or current Adventure bikes with titles of Cafe Racer.

Back to the original Shadow, I don't actually mind it too much. Reminds me a little of the VX800 with the kicked-out front end on a roadster.
