the tire hugger reminds me of a car's rear window louvered cover, but i gotta wonder if it'd actually be functional.

That's amazing... I'd almost give my left nut to be able to do that kind of work on my own.

The only thing I don't like is the frame cover... just looks odd. Like a big silver seahorse.

Dag, that makes my attempt to build a custom streetfighter out of a CBR a few year back look like a steaming heap.

Hella nice.

It sounds like a baja bug on steroids.

And on that island, (Bainbridge) you know he is popular with LEO.

Very, Very COOL...
The tank, seat sub-frame assembly really work for me. The hard angles set off the contemporary angular shape.
I also like the frame cover design. It blends the sides into the headlight unit well. I think it would be better if it was painted black or colored to match the tank though, but the polished aluminum is nice also..
My only stylistic criticism is with the loovered fenders. Interesting idea, but I think they don't flow well with the rest of the bike. to large and garish in the back and to small in the front. I also think they are a little to unfunctional to be realistic. The seem very overdone. I think a less extreme design would be better in the rear. The front is not to bad, I would just like to see a bit more of it.
Lastly, would it not be something to see, if those pipes were to come up and wrap around the tail and exit the rear. Possibly out the sides or under the seat, 916 style...
