not my cuppa,

but IMHO it would look better with one of those all metal seatpan-type seats and black apes and headlight.

the chrome makes it too cartoonish, like one of those OCC chopper bicycles from wal-mart..

i've never ridden with apes, so i can't comment on handling.

Someone should belt him in the head for doing that to a perfectly good bike.

If you wanted to use that I wouldn't stop you.

IMHO butt ugly.

I will give the man props for originality tho. Not enough of that around.

it looks to be setup like the tricycle i had in preschool. It looks so tiny too. wonder what it looks like when you are on it.

Hmmm. fwd controls on a sporty? So strange!

It's missing the tassels on the bar ends
