Check this out, not sure where you sit but it still looks cool.
I think the thing I most like about motorcycling is the speed at which my brain must process information at to avoid the numb skulls who are eating pies, playing the ukulele, applying make-up etc in the comfort of their airconditioned armchairs as they make random attempts to kill me!!!!!!!

If you slipped off that tire would wear a hole in a bad spot of your anatomy... ::)

Ow  :-X

I don't know if I like it, and on second thought I don't... It's not that it's too extreme or anything like that, but the seat, riding position etc. don't look appealing.

I think it's a good start but I'd like to see some sort of a tail.  I'm not a big fan of bikes that end with a short seat and nothing else.

          Yeah, I agree about the seat thing. I'd hate to slip off of that smallish seat and accidentally do a "Self Modification" on myself, if you know what I mean! ::)

Slip off a seat - do you guys really find yourself slipping off the back often?  What are you - 20 lbs & shaped like a sail?   :D

 I've never slipped completely off my seat but have slide back some and with that bikes seat you don't have much room to slide at all. I'd be very nervious ridding that bike. Plus it doesn't look quite right IMO.
