Trés arty-farty.

Each to their own I guess ...

I agree with Shaft.That front tyre would cause the bike to have problems cornering.

And not the right sort of bike for taking a new girlfriend star gazing

Superb craftsmanship and attention to detail, like the steel insert in the seat that Is actually part of the frame. Still looks shit though

And can you imagine hitting a pothole on it (It is hard tail isn't it?)

I suppose, to be fair, it's built by a Yank, so it's not a cafe racer, because they didn't really do them, but it does have some of the styling cues, so it's not sure what it wants to be.

Bobber+retro custom+cafe+steam punk = ornament

[covent.gardens]

Seat looks comfortable

[smegballs]

Wouldn't been too keen at that primary drive gnawing away at my left calf.

Looks like an art installation, not a motorsickle to me

[MarJay]

Negative. This is prettier and it's a production machine:

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

It contains some creative ideas, and it has a superficial steam-punk appeal. But it’s supremely unusable (like many of these creations), and that destroys any lasting appeal for me.

The real beauty of a motorcycle lies in its function. Anything else immediately risks being kitsch. This guy embodies kitsch but doesn’t seem to realise it, which is sort of the worst of both worlds. Of course there’s a large market for that kind of slightly lazy thinking, and fair play to him for successfully exploiting it.

Sex on Spokes....

Damn, I thought Tamsin was offering more than a picture of a bike

Agree with MarJay though, I would rather have this:

[Clanger]

It would certainly catch my eye, if I were to walk down the street and see one parked up. I would probably even take a photo. But consider it as a potential ride...? Not a chance.

Do these art projects typically even start? They may in some cases be literally unrideable even for a few metres.

[stinkwheel]

[RhynoCZ]

Wooden seat? More like pain on spokes rather than sex. I'd be surprised if a lad after 200 miles on that could even get his pride up.

Side note: normally, people, that don't ride, tend to point a finger at these, cafe racers, occ style choppers and so on, thinking that's the proper stuff, but they are horribly wrong.

I never said I wanted it. It would be a real pain in the posterior to live with. I just happen to think it looks pretty gorgeous
