Nice. Those wheels are kinda punch in the face, with that bike IMO.

"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 airâ€"these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

OK, so it's more of a trike than a bike and it's made in England, but the heart is Italian and it's crazy cool!

First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Socialist.
Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Trade Unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me--and there was no one left to speak for me.

Hmmm... A REAL vintage trike Supersport looks like this..., and there ain't nothin' Ei-talian about it. (Matchless or J.A.P engines.) What the blazes is that kit trike anyway?!  [roll] Two wheels are still vastly safer IMHO.  ;)

Looks like a nut-crusher and doing 75 MPH downhill standing still.  ;) You might want to rethink.

Surely, what you REALLY need is one of these? (Love those old Barcelona pix at the bottom too!) http://www.advrider.com/forums/showpost.php?p=13514401&postcount=28

that's because it's a track bike that they have "sort of" made street legal...

Re headlight... That's what I was thinking
But I would have come up with something other than that!
Still a cool bike, yeah I would like to have a go on it!

Ah, youth...  [roll] Glad to hear you still bend that way!

The Pantah seat really isn't that bad; it was the tuck, like the racing 750 snap above which starts to get you after 40ish. Couldn't have done it without fitted one-piece leathers. They gave a lot of back support and helped to hold you upright.
