it's a nice bike design, until it is disgraced with the presence of a rider.
Showroom bike IMO, it would look weird on the road, moreso if the driver does not have the clothes and helmet to match the design of the bike.

Did you notice that is was designed/built "before the war"? I'm assuming this was done in the 30's. As my g/f just noted, funny about how our visual concept of "futuristic" really hasn't changed much in the last 100 years.

True. My bike is a work of art. Until I sit on it.

I am sure if someone does the replica of this they will come up with some cool jackets and helmets to match the style

Why would one buy a bike that looks 70 years old?

I believe we all make mistakes but I will not validate your poor choices and/or perversions and subsidize the results your actions.

PSA the link in the first post from eight years ago is now NSFW.

Love the Leno video, like all true classic bikes it has to be push started.
