HD's latest concept bike, no idea if they'll put it into production. I'm not gay or nuffink, but I quite like it.

Lovely!

Isn't it vaguely reminiscent of this?

Well...

I kind of like that ...
It is odd but that might be the appeal !

Water cooled, blasphemy I say.

Don't use HD motors any longer, when they did they didn't use the 150bhp Revolution Max lump.

The newest buells look a fucking mess, imho.

Well...

New bike def looks better. Even the radiator isn't too obtrusive.

That's ghastly.

I quite like the bike in the op too. That Buell has to be the worst looking,thrown randomly together collection of parts I have ever seen.
Truly warranting the ToePan 'Hideous'.

Wait till you see a front on/three quarters pic, the Buell radiator is monstrous.

And those Buells are priced at £23k to £27k. Mind boggling.

And no ABS - so not EU compliant - not that that'll be an issue

Well, at one time, you've got it, and then you lose it, and it's gone forever. All walks of life: George Best, for example. Had it, lost it. Or David Bowie, or Lou Reed.



I hope Eric Buell is still crying.

The old Cafe Racer was the only HD that appealed. OK, it's dated, but the concept is a faithful update and - surprise - I like the looks of it too.
