That exhaust is visually offensive,it looks lovely apart from that.
I daren't look up the price tag,no doubt it's an expensive bike.

It's in the link (if you dare click it), it's built by Motorrad Martin in Germany. It's not that different from the official bike, but all the option boxes have been ticked and it's got a nice paint job.

Still recon the all black one with gold rims would look the bestest.

Saw this earlier. Not sure if I hate it or want it. I expect price would play a big part in deciding.

The local bike night often throws up something unusual (at least to my eye's) & last night was no exception.
This recently built HL540 was there so I had a chat with the owner & his mate.I'd never heard of one before,here's a link to the bike's history

Just before I left this Goldwing turned up looking nice & different

Just had a nice afternoon at Aintree,apart from the racing there was a parade for a few laps with some of the old 'Ace's of Aintree'.
Here's spme of the bikes & a road bike I'd never seen before.
A brace of Bimota's,they looked like TZ motors in there but I'm not certain.
Early Yamaha 250
And a BMW Supermoto road bike.
Plenty of other unusual bikes & a wide variety of race bikes,a good day out in the sunshine

Saw this today. Amazing, if flawed condition. Didn’t look restored as such, just looked after. And blessed by a decent climate, obviously.
Envious!

It
looks OK, but that 650 engine (if it's the same one from earlier bikes) was nothing to get excited about, for sure.

Is that the updated Rotax? (was the F650 and became the G650 in BMW terminology I think).
