i really like the painted clutch case and sump with contrasting bare metal parts (or perhaps its silver paint). The red calipers are a little much, but not horrendous. I like the pipe shape quite a bit. Subframe doesn't look so bad all blacked out with a black frame.

What about the motor swap? you're right about the calipers, over the top

I mean, a 4V would be sweet, but I really like 2V / aircooled in the open frames... I might have picked the testrastretta engine for the conversion, since it has the narrower heads, purely for visual reasons.

I wonder if the radiator would get enough airflow if you mounted it up where the airbox would be. That would definitely clean it up, or many other bikes for that matter.

That's a killer idea that I'd love to see. I wish I had the $, knowledge, and time to give it a try. I'm guessing there wouldn't be enough airflow, but if there was, it'd be hawt/

Harley/Aermacchi Chimera
Ducatiz, that is what I'm talking about. I love all the bikes you posted. I saw a Morini 3.5 this summer that was for sale cheap. It was very beat up. The police bike is cool. It would be awesome to have for around town use. What do you think the that is sticking out of the bottom hole of the Aermacchi Chimera?

Benelli 6-cylinder. I wish they had done something different with the battery.

"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the air—these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

met this bike's owner at a random car/bike show at one of the local high schools. Apparently he got it really cheap in italy and had it shipped over.
