New tech...?

...you make the call.

May not be a twin, but its pretty retro-steampunk cool.

Moved to Other Bikes.

Looks retro but is actually a 2020 model, and it is a twin. A huge twin at 1800cc. Might be a cool design to some, but it's not really new tech.

But how is it in the twisties?

Like a plane without wings...?

I’d like to see that thing riding down the Highway with a gusty crosswind……

It’s a nice showroom piece, but that’s all….IMO

I like it. I would never spend a tenth the time it took to make on a bike project. One of the things I would like to see more of on it is the picnic set.

Ya, its not my cup of tea - and I'd never own one unless outright gifted to me. Like OMF said, its gotta be a "...nice showroom piece, but that’s all." 100% agree. Maybe the centerpiece for a custom bike showroom.

If they want immortality for it, they should donate one to the Barber Museum. It would fit right in with many of the bikes there from the early 1900s in styling.

There's a few types of places that will buy stuff like that for display - notably dealerships and museums. There's one here in Dallas that has a bunch of Kiyo Kiyonaga builds that are absolutely wild - and wildly impractical - like his 12 cylinder, 3 engine "Galaxy"
