The ugliest bike in the world is an "Eva Products" t-800cdi.

Now, admittedly this is not it's best side. But ... even so. Is there an uglier motorcycle still in production? Ever made? (the Fischer MRX (http://www.fischer1.com/gallery.html) doesn't count since it would have been just fine on the set of Miami Vice or in a Duran Duran video).

PUT IT BACK, PUT IT BACK!!
Man that IS bad. Even a buell looks good against that thing.
(Just kidding to all you Buell owners out there... they are rather original looking, and have their own personality.)

DaveLooks like it may have character.
Amazons were ugly, so are CX500s. As are Rocket 3s. IMHO Super Motards are ugly also, but what would I know.........................

Buells are awesome. Not that I've ever had one, but it does kinda appeal.

It may be ugly, but it's a diesel, the way of the future. It'll burn just about anything with a bit of rejigging. And at 2.5 litres per 100km, who's complaining?
They plan to run a line of 500 units in 2007, and have orders for 2000 already.
Take all that ugly plastic off it and run it naked, I say.
That would be SO mean.
The guys at ratbike.org (http://ratbike.org/a_readers.php#759) already love it, but they do agree about the pathetic fairings.
Diesel rocks!

Nice to see it's shaft driven to. I'd extend the front mudguard first off.

I don't find it ugly, maybe utilitarian is a better description. This is the sort of bike that gets armies through wars.

Ok, what about if someone bought it for you .. paid for gas, rego all that stuff and even got you some gear to go with it.. would you ride it for a year?
My answer? Yes, but it'd be into a lake or a firey pit of "magma" /dr evil
edit: ohhh bae, check out dat pod filter! ohhhhh true bae, bet that goez hard owee.

Buell for sure, don't know how the company is still going after monstrosoties like this!
onearmedbandit
28th December 2006, 10:26
Fuck me, they are ugly. Were Buell making bikes in the 70's/80's? Because those two look straight out of that era, albeit trying to look 'futuristic'.
garfield69
28th December 2006, 10:38
Were from the mid eighties.
Heres some others brands to lose your lunch over.

Always despised the looks of the Y2K bike. That 2nd one, not sure but is it Morbidelli V8?
Found this (http://www.bikez.com/motorcycles/van_veen_ocr_1000_1977.php) on the OCR. Another page I found on it claimed it to have a 3l rotary engine?
[edit] I was right, the Morbidelli V8.

This is where I found the pic, and some info about it. Don't know about the 3l but it was a rotary and 100hp in the mid 70s must have been something else!

This has got to be the ugliest bike ever. The closer you get to it, the more disgusting it gets. Typical Chinese build quality too. Just look at those welds.
No wonder you don't see them in Thailand and India. They'd be too embarrassed to ride them.

Sorry Finn, that's not ugly. It's way worse than that, its . . . "common".

Remember the first Britten didnt look much different... and boy that turned out to be something else!
Yeah, it went faster without the ghey fairings.

Come on mate. Even with all that paint, I can still see it's a Suzuki.

I reckon this has had a touch of the ugly-stick waved at it...
gav
28th December 2006, 20:28
A touch? Think it hit every damn branch when it fell out of the ugly tree, and they used some left over branches to make the dash didnt they?

Vyrus looks like a parts bin special, bit of Duc, bit of Bim, bet it's got Lucas electrics with one of those big multi finned doodads that spits all the extra volts out on to the road.

Says the man who has gone out of his way to make his GSXR as UNcommon as possible.

That depends, which end did you think was the front, and which part did you think was the exhaust?

Damn, got me there. While I like the traditional blue and white, I am glad mine is no longer factory and (as far as I know) one of a kind in NZ.

Oh, good god I see what you mean. Didn't BMW make a similar (but not so bad) hideous shitter at some point? It's the fairings on the front wheel that does the damage. Well, some of it anyway.

Yeah, that's the one. Although in the present company it looks like something Mr Tamburini may have designed.
