I guess I am going to have to look this Karl Larger drinker up on the interweb thing, but if he is the guy on the left with the grey hair, the one at the rear of the bike looks like he might the this oddity's play toy, there to me seems something odd about the 3 of them.

Is this the guy who came up with the fur covered helmet?

Chanel? Is that because it is going to attempt to cross the English Channel?

It even looks as if the photo has been designed.

I image that depends if removing functionality in favour of the aesthetic is a design trait you prefer.

Called in to Deus ex Machina yesterday. Corner of Nelson and Wellesley St in old power board workshops. If you like that bike you will love the bikes they have in there. A highly recomended visit.
The Lambo bike up at Independent Prestige on Gt. North Road is worth the time/effort of going to see. POA $400k?

That depends on whether you can accept that motorcycles have a place as purely an object for artistic expression, rather than merely functional objects. Some of the best are both of course

Meh I've no beef with fashion, it's just another branch of business and to be honest It's nice when the girls put on something a bit flash. (Still wont catch me in a cardigan and skinny ass jeans). BUT it is good to see a bike in a commercial that isnt a harley or a sports clone. : )
Karl soes remind me of one of the thunderdird baddies tho (wonder if his head wobbles when he walks?)

Sure - I like Big Daddy and Arlen Ness and the OCC work too.

I don't think this example displays really enviable skillez however. The thing would tip over less than a chopper.

I admire Sochiro's and Erik's eg design skills a whole lot more.
