At least that's where I assume the motor comes from. Some crazy manufacturing going on there.

I like it, but I don't, if you get my drift. Would need to see it in the flesh (ha yeah right) to understand what's really going on around the bikes mid section.

I'd sure ride it.

And while I'm all for metaphors and similes - like a bull at a gate - but I'm a bit over vehicles with DNA.

It's not consistent with itself.

The seat looks like it's off a different design.

Otherwise, it's kind of cool.

Ish.

Not sure about that seat. Also interested to see the rest of the exhaust.

Not sure about that seat.

I think you need to lube it before use.



(Nice bike, though - if it could be made legal for the road with screwing it up too much).

Chopped up Guzzi

That looks like a track racer maybe American board circuit ... those tyres are way too thin ...

A lot of unusual influences there. Was built by a 20 year old American guy.
