Another mess... random anodised bits including the ends of the levers. Red plug leads (I thought they were out decades ago). A horribly convoluted exhaust (looks like it'll have to come off to get access to the cam belts)...

And those oil coolers and pipes! Clearance between tyre and the bottom one must be minimal/

Blimey it's been years since anyone actually chose blue and red anodisation surely?

Is it Belllwoods new bike? :wtf: How to ruin a classic bike. Perfect example of just because you can, doesn't mean you should. Plus i can't get my head round the odd sided swinging arms on these. Really irks me even though I know why its like that now!

Oh dear, how to gild a lily. I could go on at length about this, suffice to say there are too many colours.
They even managed to make the usually splendid looking Zard system look cheesy, and why the hell does it need an extra oil cooler?

That just proves the idea and design of the bike is more important than the skills to build it 👍🤣
