Reminds me of the sort of thing you can build with an erector set.  Like it has the general shape of a motorcycle but none of the parts look right cause they aren't really motorcycle parts.  And the designer is in love with CNC.

I know! Crazy isn't it!! You know for sure though that you'd stand out at the Pavillions and spoof heck out of the custom chromers!!!   [cheeky]

Heavy? The S4RS has a dry weight of 424 lbs. http://www.motorcyclistonline.com/roadtests/122_0604_2007_ducati_monster_s4rs/index.html
If that number is true that is actually pretty light.
