A Firestorm one.

https://i.imgur.com/TzJPPht.jpg

All very futurey.

Supercharged, using a Mini Cooper S supercharger, with a single-sided front fork, uprated brakes, custom-fabricated chassis.

- Moteur 1000 VTR
- Partie cycle fixée directement sur le moteur porteur
- Monobras arrière mécano-soudé
- Mono fourche avant taillée dans la masse, conception spécifique

The Dokujya, which is fitted with a v-twin engine from the Honda VTR1000. However, the engine has been supercharged, using a supercharger from the Mini Cooper S hot hatch. And if that wasn’t enough, the bike also gets a very beefy single-sided front fork, uprated brakes, custom-fabricated chassis and a very cool style makeover.

*it's not really a streetfighter.

Sweeet, it's based off an old Honda concept bike, the NAS. Nice to see someone made a working version because those air intakes are pure sex.

That is wicked. Apart from the lights which I do not like.

I've always been impressed at engineering attempts at single sided fronts. Once saw a custom with dual USD's on one side with bespoke yokes and hub. Looked crazy with a SS rear as well, kinda half finished, almost as if the engine and frame were floating between the wheels. But it probably handled like shit. Think it was a blade but can't seem to find a pic.

Edit: here it is, only image I could find.

Gilera made the CX 125, ultimate learners' 80s spaceship.

https://www.compton.vispa.com/morini/images/gilera_cx_1.jpg

Did a pretty good job of minimizing the single fork. IMO single sided fronts only look good from one side and since they still have the same issues as normal forks, always seemed like a halfway-step to full hub centre steering.

Noticed this in the eBay ads at the bottom of the page. Now that's a build. You'd think it came that way from the factory, as opposed to most of the front fairing being missing. What a beast, endurance racers are the beastiest.

I'm a bit puzzled by that one. Surely it's built for the drag strip? Although hard to tell if the s/arm has been extended in that shot. Rear end sitting low, and that V & H pipe seems to sit way too low for taking corners with any kind of enthusiasm.

Ah yeah, sorry, just spotted the description, only read your post at first Embarassed

Fugly imo, hate those air intakes. A bike should be somewhat 'flowing' in design I think, not looking like a team of designers have all been given their own part of the bike to work on and just frankensteined everyones ideas.

It's the lack of a radiator that I'd be more concerned with.

Could be side-mounted or otherwise squirreled away somewhere out of sight. Amazing how the designers can sometimes shift radiators around a bike... IIRC the Benelli Tornado Tre 900 has it's radiator behind the seat.
