Well here you go! Drain your bank account, annoy your neighbors, and piss off your wife all with one purchase! Oh but you’ll look oh so cool wobbling into the parking lot of the local bars. Wow the lookie loos when you hit the switch and drop your bike down on the ground! Impress the drunks outside the bar as you blare Sweet Home Alabama from your thunderous stereo!

Are my eyes deceiving me or don't the spoke go to the top of the front wheel and why does is the sill of the SUV lower behind the wheel than in front of it?
I'm also unsure why it appears to have tree front mudguards/

back wheel and foot pegs are optional extras
 
Not my style of ride in any way shape or form. I hope the suspension airs up on start. IMO there is no practicality in the design. All style, no purpose.
 
Just like the fat rear tires that lasted long enough for guys to buy or build a bike that they cant sell.
 
Woooooow, amazing project !!! Maybe it is strange but definitely unusual and very original !!! I would ride on such a thing but I would rather not use it on a daily basis. :D

Here - https://www.motorcyclescreens.eu is nice site with windshields and wind deflectors if anyone will need it. Touring, sport, universal and choppers screen as well. For many brands and models like FJR 300, XVS 650 and lot more. I am satisfied with purchase which i made on this site and for these prices I think there is no chance to find something better and cheaper. I bought windscreen for My YAMAHA FJR 1300 and it is superb.

The same is generally true of cafe racers, choppers, classic bikes (particularly Triumphs), and other various interesting machines. The urban coffee houses and taverns is where you find them. Photo attached is from downtown Memphis.

Some consider this unridable by present day standards. This one is doing regular commuting duty. To each their own.

Oh, that’s a beauty! I used to ride my ‘76 Bonneville every chance I got. Man I loved that bike. Why did I sell it? :shrug:
