It was designed in an attempt to make an otherwise widely used and minimially modified bike stand out in a crowd ( in India no less, where these bikes are immensely popular). Most everything on the bike is done for pure functionality, which in turn adds to its aesthetic. I really dig it, but hey, to each his own.
