The Recycle Monster by Totti Motori.  The concept is so close to being cool, but the seat does not look right with the tank.  The bike has a broken back look. 



I'm pretty sure we've seen this bike before.  It seems to use the same seat & seat combo.

Lovely bike, but damn, that rubber hose coming off the top of the tank is butt ugly  [bang]

Looks like a suspension linkage.

I can't be sure, but that looks like a DP foam race seat pad for a 90s 900SS with mono seat.  I have one here on my desk  [roll]  and that seat looks like a 900ss mono cut down to the frame.

Rear shock...like a monster.

You're right. Not really sure why I even posted that one. There must have been something I liked about it. I like the concept of the tank wrapping around the front of the frame, but in reality it makes the tank look huge.
