Look at the seating position..
Bars way forward, pegs way forward...
Don't reckon it'd be to comfy with that combo and the "seat" it has..

Bendito dont make me start a poll Its obviously a joke question.
Like all riders I do my best to ditch her when I ride cos she ruins the fun.
Maybe I should buy this bike so she stops asking to come on rides.

So it shares some similarities with the R1 then?
In Terms of a custom show piece bike, it looks Horn the Wraith is still the best Confederate though

I'm sure the people for whom these are designed will not be the ones with practical functionality foremost in their mind.
For what it is, it looks pretty awesome. Good to see front girder suspension still being used, too...

Front girder?
I thought it looked like the beemer's telelever suspension (or is that the same thing?).

Yeah that's diffintely a girder, you can see side on that both the top and lower trees are pivot points, and a coil-over shock between them.

Ahh, yup. After looking into it a bit more, I think get what you mean. It's the same as on the Britten V1000.
Very similar looking to the telelever front end, but I think the top pivot is slightly different.
