This has to be the ugliest bike I have ever seen. What the hell were they thinking?
A front fairing that would not look out of place on a Vespa scooter, and a tank cover modeled on a basset hounds ears. :sick:

Someone paid to have that done? I wonder how much they would pay someone to ride it?

I think it is very cool and would sure own and ride it. Same with the MV Zagato F4, not for everyone but the fact only 1 or 2 exist makes it more desirable.

Some beautiful components and craftsmanship. Also no headlight, no mirrors....a special bike, the designer went a different way but can be proud of the creation in my opinion.

That reminds me just a few weeks ago I saw an MV Agusta Brutale 800 converted into "scrambler" with removed plastic bits and knobby tyres for $18k. I ain't joking!

Someone actually bought it too, apparently!

Turned up recently on Pipeburn or similar.

I agree it is pointless and a bloody awful front end. Be OK without that.

It looks like a nod to the dustbin fairings of old.

Yeah - that's how the builder tried to justify it ...........


A nod to Rachel Welsh's boobs of old I can understand, but that bike .... no.
