Yeah but what I was getting at was why the CX when they had more suitable 4 cylinder bikes they could have turbo-charged? From what I`ve read and heard the Kwak was the only one that was really worthwhile.

Possibly just to be different I guess. Honda was going though a stage of producing some quite weird configurations at the time IIRC.

Ugly, like beauty, is in the eye of the beholder.

I think Hannibel the canibal would say- "Not enough meat on them there bones for my taste".

Worlds ugliest bike BMW K1.

American Chopper just purchase the parts out of catalogues of custom parts made by fabricators.
Frame, forks, swingarm (if fitted - LOL), tank, wheels, bars, engine, brakes, and seat.
They then assemble the bits together when they arrive (basically they are fitters) they then get a welding torch out and cut up a small but of metal, grind it a bit, then attach it, do a few bits of finishing and park their name on it (basically its Hewlett Packard ... kinda look the same too).
