That has a pretty interesting look... I like the rear brake setup and love it anytime I see a turbo on a bike... I dont know if I like his config for the front suspension though.

Uh... How do you get the engine into or out of the frame?

(while that's pretty cool,I still like my cb750 based cafe concept better :))

Telelever front end is actually quite effective. Much better than the standard forks... Bid down side, however, is added weight, and a lot of it.

Very artistic. I wouldn't want to try to work on the bike though!

Simple, mlinder: cutting torch.  It has a cool look, but reminds me more of the concept cars you see at auto shows.  The article says that some of his bikes actually become reality.  Although I sometimes try to be virtual, I can't ride a virtual bike.

I'm pretty sure it has the same kind of brake set-up on the front but it's on the left side if you look close....I think.

          That's pretty good, there are folks who are complaining that they can't do a head job on their 750 because of the frame, and then this thing shows up. ::) How would you do ANYTHING to the motor? ??? Does it come with a SAWZALL (or how ever you spell it) and a welder that you use in case of motor repairs? ??? ;D ::) No Thank You, wouldn't have it on a bet. ::)

                                                      Later on, Bill :) ;)
