Some trick engineering in there - shame it looks horrible.

I sort of like it, for me i would like something to just break up the mat black. Maybe gloss black or some polished alloy....not quite sure what just needs a little something to lift it a little...nice though.

Horrid!
could easily have look nice! wrong tires, and the seat area (or just behind) spoilt it for me.

That's just too depresing. Best viewed on a (very) dark night methinks. 
Says a lot about the bloke who put it together. I suspect he had 'issues'.
On the other hand, I think these creations, built by my Dutch mate Edwin shows what happens when a 'well balanced' chap goes to work.

They look better apart from the location of the oil cooler. Might be prone to leakage or blockage?

Hi all
Blitz motorcycles build some very well put together boxers. I would imagine the black bike was built for a client. It's certainly different!
The green and orange bikes seem to have the oil cooler put in a very strange and vulnerable place.

Those oil coolers look vulnerable, especially on our crumbling roads.

The orange bike looks OK-ish in a KTM 'homage' kind of way. The green one looks awful, though.
As for the oil cooler - that's where they are on aircooled Ducatis - it's not a good place for them, as they get hit with all the crap thrown up off the front wheel.

I like it. Kind of a "Faux Rat". A "Maus-moto". and its not falling to bits or held together with gaffa tape and barbecue paint - which is a bonus.
