Possibly the strangest bike I have ever seen

[FretGrinder]

I was just browsing eBay for a second bike and came across.....

This.

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1975-Kawasaki-H2C-750-Mach-IV-Aardvark-MONSTER-Special-Un-registered-US-Import-/330690908403?pt=UK_Motorcycles&hash=item4cfeb6d0f3#ht_2285wt_1270

At first glance I thought it had been involved in some sort of accident.

Said accident appears to have been at the factory.

It‘s from dk, chances are it's resistered as a gs500

That "fairing" looks like it came from a scrapped Lotus Esprit.

That 'bike' is obviously the brainchild of some yank customiser on a really bad acid trip, undoubtedly the ugliest bike i've seen in many years. Having said that, if the price stays reasonable it might be worth a punt for the engine alone as H2's are making serious money these days.

Buy it, remove the fairing, sell it. Instant profit.

Remember kids, bikes aren't like lego. You can't easily take a part from one bike and then fit it to another.

Apart from the lump, there's not a lot of original parts left, frame looks like it's been altered too so, in bits, it's probably not actualy worth much. If it was, DK would have already stripped it.

Looks bloody dangerous with that nose..imagine a driver glancing quickly in his rear mirror and seeing the nose 'ah its a car in the distance plenty of braking room', *brakes hard*

I am amazed how they got it to look like an actual Aardvark, or was it the other way around?

[koolio]

I think its cool, looks quite Blade Runner/Cyber punk but I wouldn't buy it (except for the front fairing).

Personally I find nearly all bikes produced since 1995 should be killed with fire. For example Gxsr, CB1000F and other similar bikes the list goes on should be incinerated etc. etc.

Each to their own I suppose.

Well with that chopping and styling? , here is a lesson on how to make what was once a great bike (in standard trim) REALLY SHITE!

surely that nose is going to play havok with steering, a cross wind would make for interesting riding. how about a tank slapper?

Only bit i like is the engine, i'd consider it just for that, then sell or make lampshades out of the rest.

mixed feelings about the white pipes.

wonder what they'll take for it.

I would like some of what the designer/builder of that bike has been taking.

Come on you guys stop the kidding.
It's obvious that's an artist's impression/CGI of a concept bike from inside covdude's head.

Looking at this again, I wonder if it might have been a combo at some time
