For those who think the Yamaha is ugly...

[R100Pilot]

The ultimate naked bike. For about $70K, it could be yours.



Vyrus (Yes, that's what it's called)

[jdub3]

i *guess* i'd ride it.......

[stmike]

At least you wouldn't have to worry about seeing a dozen others at your local bike hangout.

[tekmoe]

that's not ugly...

that's FUGLY! :razz:

[R100Pilot]

Yeah, it sorta reminds me of what the Terminator looked like once his skin burned off.

[Nunzio]

It's kinda like a woman with three boobs. There is more of it but frankly more than I want. :hihi:

And its not white.

The problem is the frame is really ugly. I think the fairing version they are coming out with will look a lot better. It almost looks like it was suppose to have fairings, someone dumped it and took everything off.

[cheapbastard]

awww heck, it ain't that bad! I'd ride it! Didn't say I'd buy it, just said I'd ride it! :-D

[BUCKET]

I don't know what to think.Now i'm confused,better go have a drink or twenty,that'll make up my mind.
Bucket :hammer:

The Tesi 2D looked better.



I think the air cooled engine and the under-engine exhaust worked.

At least Bimota is trying something different, unlike 90% of the bike market. Nobody else is even willing to try an alternate front suspension, except for Britten, BMW, and that brief Yamaha mistake. (What was Yamaha thinking? That RADD front suspension belonged on a lightweight sportbike, not a heavy tank of a pisspoor sport touring lump.)

By all accounts Bimota finally has the bugs ironed out of the hub center steering concept, but what's with the pneumatic shocks? And why a Ducati engine? enquiring minds want to know!
