Minimalist cafe bike

So what do you think of this one? - a little more minimalistic approach than most...

I like a bike you can see through, and you can almost put your head through that one.

Other Motorcycle: right, i wish. . .
i don't know. . . i'm a fan of the stripped cafe racer but that seems like a case of throwing the baby out with the bath water. . . first example of a stripped bike that i don't find all that great.

I really like that completely see-through look. I am doing something just like that to my bike right now.

Very nice effort. I don't care for the bars or the tail light and would change them. I would also change the front brake.I am assuming the bike is actually ment to be ridden.
