Even Chad, who doesn't care about the look of a bike, would say that bike is too ugly to exist. I didn't know you could strap a set of wheels on a turd. |

ZTL brakes. V4 engine. Don't tell me you wouldn't take it out for a good beating! I know I would. I think it looks cool anyway. |

Humm...interesting looking bike. But I'm about performance, not looks, and that bike doesn't appear to have any front suspension unless something is built into the gianormous "fork tubes". Also, the seat appears to be very slick, making a hard launch an exciting affair. There is nothing to keep your arse from sliding off the back. The wheelbase appears to be hellshly long as well, meaning those huge footpegs would end up being well sharpened after a few laps. Don't care what it looks like, as long as it performs....and this bike doesn't meet my performance criteria. It's butt jewelry. Now, give me that engine in a nice, small, lightweight chassis....and get out of my way! (Message edited by chadhargis on October 01, 2008) |

Just an observation - the rotors look like they came straight off a Buell! |

Just an observation - the rotors look like they came straight off a Buell! Just a fact - Buell did not invent rim mounted rotors. (He "did" invent a mounting method to make them work right for mass production) |

Midknyte - My statement never eluded to the question if they were or were not invented by Buell. It was merely to point out the visual similarity between the two. Besides, it doesn't much matter who invented it first, the guy with the patent always wins in a court of law... http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m0KJI/is_8_1 18/ai_n16702057/pg_6 |

Just trying to maintain facts. I was terse. Thanks for the link - had not seen that article yet. |
