It's not astheticly pleasing, but the concept is pretty cool and the for a "first try" definately well executed.

Now, if it goes anywhere from here or is further refined it might get interesting.

I'd like to see the side plates done in a gel coat carbon fiber...now that would look much better. I'm wondering too if by using carbon fiber...which is far stiffer and stronger than fiberglass...if he could use less of it and reduce some of those really wide sections of the plates like the "downtube" area?

I don't think I've ever seen an ugly bike. Seen a few that I didn't care for (most anything Ness ever did) but can't say I think they are ugly.

Someone forgot to tell the owner fringes went out of style in the 1970's.
