  4. Yeah, I don't get it, it's not a Superbike... The Whole premise is wrong! tuned up superbike engine that will be really highly strung in a low rider chopper style chassis with no ground clearance.....

    How have they made a V-Twin with barely any width into a bubble?

  5. Another stupid concept bike that has no relevance in todays market. Stack this one with the Caterham bike.

  13. They don't have any money to develop cars let alone 'supposed' motorcycles - its more likely a student design engineers school boy doodle. Does the right hand rear shock connect to the rear disc - nice feature...

  14. If you take it as a custom lowrider then its sleek with a hint of cafe about it. A bit drag bike too. Its obviously not a 'real' bike. Its a design exercise.

    Get rid of the rear shocks and put a vw derived torsion bar system instead. Float the rear.

  15. Well....it's a render.....which is the way most of these things stay as.....
     
  16. What would Colin Chapman have to say about his company today?
     
  17. I'd buy 2 and use them as book ends. Yet another pie in the sky piece of plankton, no, hang on, plankton is very very useful. Makes the Ducati SL a proper despatch bike.
    I really thought it would be a half decent attempt at producing a real world 2 wheeler. How silly I was. One day I'd like to meet these so called designers and introduce them to the world outside their offices.
     
  18. where do i put the tax disc…………how long should my tyres last, and what do you think of my added gold extras…..
     
  19. He'd say, "That bike looks pregnant".
     
  20. Amazingly aerodynamic fairing over the frame... but it would be completely un-aerodynamic once you put a rider on it - rider would be completely in the airflow, knees would be sticking out like sails.
