I remember a few people posting pics of similar choppers.
Not really wondering if people like it or not, but how on earth does the back end work.

And yes thats a 360 rear

Because the bearings are all in the triangly looking bit at the end of the forks!

Something like this was in that American Chopper series a while back. We're just accustomed to seeing the bearings in the centre - it's nothing technically clever, just different.
