The HD Cross Bones and Moto Guzzi V7 are some of the best looking bikes ever.

Also the Triumph double headlight models like the Street/Speed Triples are still too Johnny 5 looking to be taken seriously.
Sorry didn't mean to offend. But as far as nakeds go - I like them both. But I'm such an anime nut that I like the B-King.

Praytell, what anime bike does the B-King remind you of? I watch my fair share, and your fair share, but don't really see the connection.

Also we may need an anime thread.
It actually reminds me of This guy - even though yes - it isn't really anime.

But who can't love monster movies with robots. The B-King really looks like Jet Jaguar with this third-party windscreen - I think I just have to get....windscreen makes the headlight look like Jet Jaguar's head

I also keep thinking of several robots from the Voltron universe, but I don't have any specific ones that I can mention.

It may be that it has an anime 'feel'. But I know I've seen that robot face / headlight somewhere else before. I'll probably figure it out like 5 years from now.

Anime Cafe Racer

The tailpipes on this one - remind me of the B-King, but only because of the tail pipes and intakes

Ahhh anyway.... It has an anime feel to it.

The called it the transformer bike as well, but I don't see that one at all?

Just look at my sig, cruisers of the future need to look like this.

Kinda looks like the new V-MAX.

Or maybe closer to the V-MAX concept they showed back in 2006.

except the bike has 4 exhausts (4 into 4) and it's longer. I don't have any pics of it sideways.

I'm sure the aftermarket might get the V-MAX there.

Might be hella loud though. Straight pipes ought to let that V-4 roar.

You mean like a kind of pre-hearse - slow and heavy and funereal. Yep, I could go with that idea.

This Kwak gets my vote as the most beautiful bike of all time.

It looks small, but is that a 900?
