I like the black one better, who makes them?
Of course I'm generalizing from a single example here, but everyone does that. At least I do.

I saw that in Cycle World last summer. It's not quite the streetfighter they are positioning it as, but it's a powercruiser I can relate too. But that's just my take on the bike.

If I had the $75,000 laying around, I'd use it to buy and modify 4 other bikes..... if I won it in a raffle or something, I'd dig it. :mrgreen:

Is that an intake or a jet engine? I'm only confused since they mounted twin mortars where the exhaust should be.

i like the overall look, even though the front-end is a bit raked out. likely it doesnt handle the way i'd like... however, having now seen the new Yamaha MT-01 in person, i think the Ecosse looks better. somehow the MT-01 didnt quite make it from designers pen to street legal with the same look.

that new norton is pretty interesting too....
