Woof. Looks like a big ol' suppository. Clearly a bike designed by someone who has never ridden a bike--note the total absence of front suspension travel or wind protection for the rider. I thought Ferraris were supposed to go fast and handle well? I do give him points for using a ZTL brake system, though. Obviously this was a styling exercise, not a true prototype proposal, so I forgive the impracticality. I call EPIC FAIL on the styling, though. If I want a red bike with "Ferrari gills" I can paint up a Kawi C14, for crying out loud. Then again, I think the Buells (ALL of them) are handsome bikes, so I obviously have the design sensibility of a haddock. | ||

I would have expected a LOT more from Ferrari - that design has no character, and the over-simplified design makes it hard to look at. | ||

I like this quote from the article:"Onetime Ferrari designer Frank Stephenson, now at arch-rival McLaren, was quoted as saying that the closest the average person will get to owning a Ferrari would be a Ducati."  | ||

Buell, just made me a little prouder. 2003 designs available soon--in a country far from you (for a price you wouldn't believe).  | ||

Who the hell designed those scoops? They look like crap. | ||

It reminds me of the guy from Beetlejuice when he poked his eyes out and stretched his face. | ||

I wonder if your legs will get warm with that header and exhaust placement??? | ||

It reminds me of the guy from Beetlejuice when he poked his eyes out and stretched his face. Exactly what I was thinking. | ||

This thing looks like something out of Mad magazine, what's it called... oh yeah, Spy vs. Spy. | ||

By any measure of taste, it's severely lacking, I mean how the hell are you supposed to stay on the thing? velcro seat is it? The Israeli designer must have watched TRON just after the F1 then gone to bed with a cheese & mushroom sandwich. | ||

Spy vs spy is close but it reminds me more of some cartoon character with a long nose. Can't think of the character's name, pretty sure it is blue and white. Wish I could find it, not even sure the cartoon name. | ||

It looks very much like a dog chew toy... red Nylabone, anyone? ~SM | ||

That is one of the ugliest motorcycles I have ever seen. Ferrari should stick to cars. | ||

Looks like some sort of weird fish or eel trying to swallow a motorcycle tire. Yeah I know, an eel is a fish. |
