now this is gorgeous...





looking at the size of that oil cooler I would say that the 1000DS engine is somewhat tuned. And no cats!!!

now that makes even the Multistrudel look pretty

theres just too much going on as result it looks awful there are no lines to pick out it's all angular and bitty .
(i've heard that before somewhere something to do with the 999 i think )

I think it might be due to the mushrooms but that top fairing looks like a rabbit to me

I will wait until I see it 'in the metal' before I make up my mind. If it's as light as it should be and with Bimota's usual attention to detail it should be a belting bike though.

I like the lightweight aircooled concept, not convinced about the looks though, except I do like the logical extension of having a trellis frame carried through to the swingarm.

Although I'm not wild about the looks though, I would prefer a bike that looked a bit cack but went and handled superbly than a bike that looked gorgeous but went and handled like cack.
