It's hard to see in that image but I think I see a little aerodynamic plastic windscreen just above the instruments? In any event, you're right, correction required: " A purist might argue that they don't have any form of aerodynamic *bodywork* at all. " -- Regards Andrew

Nice though. Don't know if an engine forced to breathe through inlet tracts as long and as convoluted as those would be able to burn enough fuel to make overheating an issue... since he's gone to that much trouble already, he might as well have bolted on a turbo for each cylinder bank while he was at it. Lovely, lovely one-off, but also a graphic illustration of why there aren't more V12 motorbikes around. |
