Stupid exhausts and no side panels, but apart from that, its quite nice.

Only one stupid bar end mirror is not an improvement on two stupid bar end mirrors. Silly exhaust and a hole in the middle.
Apart from that it looks heavy and a bit brutal...like café racers often used to, but with decent brakes and suspension so it's a
-ish.

Yeah bring back side panels to hide the mess of wiring, 3 kilos of battery, regulator, rectifier, starter solenoid, coolant or oil reservoirs. 
Srsly though, better uses of this free space? Storage? Additional fuel tank? Move the fuel tank entirely and have under tank storage / electrics in the traditional place. I'm sure this happens on factory bikes from time to time.

Apart from the hole in the frame I like it.

It's ok. I'd be obsessed with finding something to go into that hole though.

Not bad. I like the colour.
Pillion pegs are a daft idea on any motorcycle and especially daft on a 'cafe racer'.
I don't mind the frame hole at all,I like that skeletal look.
The exhaust isn't great and the swinger looks budget.
Higher bars and I'm in.
