Got £78k burning a hole in your pocket and like two smokes, then this is the bike for you!

It's an X (not a V) 8

Wow!

Edit: "Each Aperion will have a specific authorization to be driven on British soil, in accordance with the MSVA (Motor Single Vehicle Approval) procedure."

If Salvador Dali made exhaust systems......

The seat looks like I made it. :lol:

Hey ho, £78k is small change for some and some of them will want/must have one. It's, sort of, a shame to bury the engine behind all that exhaust plumbing though.

Is that an old GS750 tank? For 78k you would expect a little more effort on aesthetics.

Can you imagine doing a jetting change on 8 carburettors? Love the concept, wish they'd brought it kicking and screaming into the 21st century.

Where is the chain? Can see the pockets for the cush drive on a half arsed single sided swinger.

Is it a mix of AI and optimism. Hideous looking for £78k

If you got £78k worth of £1 coins and randomly tipped them on the floor it'd be about as aesthetically pleasing. In fact more so as you could then take that pile of coins and buy a few nice looking bikes

Would the rider be given insulated or water-cooled heat proof trousers? Call Wallace and Gromit!
