Wouldn't wanna ride that thing. You'd have the greenies all over the place trying to save that whale beached on the front...

Yuck!
To me a concept bike should be something which could actually work on the road, not something that needs to be placed on a pedestal and admired for it artistic interpretation.
Shame really looks like a lot of hard work went into it and not a clue how to put it all together

after closer inspection i just noticed the triple end cans on either side, they'll keep the legs toasty in winter, and stinkin' of smoke. :lol: :lol: :lol:

its kinda growing on me, the more i look at it the more i appreciate the engineering in it, a bit like the choppers built by the orange county and other shops the world over... very impractical but beautiful engineering, if some of it isn't down to sheer guess work.

yeausssss.. looking at it exestentially speaking, the essential essence which incorporates the japanese symbiosis with the ocean and life therin ,the Orca breaches infront of the rider , silver fins caressing baleen type ridges that curve gracefully underneath the fuel tank. continuing the denizens of the deep theme with the open Maw of the extended front wheelguard,mimicing the feeding mouth of the basking shark. the assured confidence of the man in black whom one assumes is the designer, says touch the bike m8 and ill banzai out your kneecaps, sublime in its simplicity the Itchifanni 1200 cant fail to land a few admirers...

I don't know, I'm always told by an old bloke that a proper bike has a kick start. None of mine have ever had one. 8)
