I saw these guys lecture at the Indrustial Designers Society of America conference in Pittsburgh 2004. They were very well spoken and clearly brilliant, but also clearly broke and with absolutely no intention (it seemed) of ever making a profit on their bikes. But hey, whatever floats your boat.
Its a shame as the design is something else. At least it make something nice to look at and its thinks outside the design box.
What an awesome looking machine! Wouldn’t it be brilliant if one of the major motorcycle manufacturos built something similiar? I reckon if this was mass produced it would sell like hot cakes! An absolutely stunning piece of kit, kind of retro meets futeristic! FANTASTIC, Want One!
