Author Message   Jim_Witt Posted on Tuesday, February 19, 2002 - 09:52 pm:        Sweeet looking RS, love that red!   Aaron Posted on Tuesday, February 19, 2002 - 09:55 pm:        The RS is a gorgeous machine, a rolling work of art, despite what PPiA says!   Aaron Posted on Tuesday, February 19, 2002 - 10:20 pm:        My favorite bike of the exhibit, though, just a few steps away from mine.   Jim_Witt Posted on Tuesday, February 19, 2002 - 10:56 pm:        Aaron: Tell you what man, I LOVE that Britten too, absolutely OUTrageous. By any chance, did you get any close-ups of the those exhaust intestates? Cheers, -JW:>)   Aaron Posted on Tuesday, February 19, 2002 - 11:02 pm:        Incredible bike.   Jim_Witt Posted on Tuesday, February 19, 2002 - 11:53 pm:        Aaron: Amazing ...... sure would enjoy tackleing a project like the headers. Sure looks interesting with all the degreed fitting. Cool, -JW:>)   Peter Posted on Wednesday, February 20, 2002 - 01:15 pm:        Gggnnnnnhhhhh....Baah! Spit! Can't do it. Trying to bight my tongue, but it won't work. The RS is still ugly. Sorry Aaron, but it hasn't improved at all in looks and it probably never will. The Britten however? Definitely deserved the honour bestowed on it as "Motorcycle of the Century". An inspiring creation. Have you watched the video yet? PPiA   Aaron Posted on Wednesday, February 20, 2002 - 01:30 pm:        The Aussie has no appreciation of art. That is a GORGEOUS motorcycle. The Britten's appeal is more in the mechanical area. I like them both, and I like the Britten more, it's bold and purposeful and it makes a statement and it's waaaay outside the box. But man, that RS is beautiful. And, the best thing is, I can actually own an RS. I have no chance of owning a Britten in my lifetime.   Blake Posted on Wednesday, February 20, 2002 - 01:55 pm:        Definitely cool stuff. Maybe not so cool on the right thigh.   Peter Posted on Wednesday, February 20, 2002 - 04:00 pm:        Right. I thought I'd ask for an impartial point of view. I covered the text and said "Ingrid. Come and tell me what you think of this bike. Does it look good or not?" "Hmmm," she said. "I don't like that seat thing and I don't like the fairing...." "Yes, but overall, what do you think of the total look of the bike?" "Um, just average I guess," she said. Now that's coming from a professional artist. OK, a singer and dancer, but someone who's been around the art scene for years. I'll rest my case for now. PPiA PS. Have you watched the Britten video? If you haven't, I'll send you a copy.
