    OK, very clever build, with probably no expense spared, but now we've seen it run, put it in a glass case and put it away - its all art, and no use for what riding is meant to be about - visceral fun. I'm afraid its another case of form over function. Lazy tractor engine, in a frame that wont handle, with frankly silly wheel diameters that are hard to make go around corners!
    I really think a 20 year old 250 would be more fun to ride.

      Col. Sir Buffy Horsetrouser You're missing the point, this is Art over function. It was never meant to be the next CBR, KTM 450 EXC etc.... The world is a better place for having something like this in it. Can you imagine living in a place where everything was just was made up of purely passionless, functional things? What a boring and soul killing place that would be.

    • @gregorytimmons4777

      @@LuckyPause3d Everybody trying to out think themselves here. Trying to debate the importance of it actually being a functional bike. If that's what makes this a fail then there is an awful lot of really uncomfortable, impractical stuff that has already slipped thru and awed the people that are all caught up in custom bikes. It obviously is rolling art if you choose to see it as that. It doesn't have a whole lot of redeeming qualities as a functional and practical bike. I wouldn't want to count on that back tire at speed in a corner or a straight line for that matter. Maybe it's an ode to the old board track racers. I wonder about the capabilities of those tires but then i think of the tires on a Bugatti and their suitability to go 200mph. In reality it's an advertising campaign and it's not the only one. I just scrolled past another video of another possibly even weirder bike for Akropovic. It's really pretty much the same thing as what was built on American Choppers for a number of successful seasons. Corporate symbols showing the "hipness" of the company that commissioned it. I'd be shocked to see that this thing has been licenced and street ridden more than just a few blasts across a parking lot, across a stage or tooling the streets in an industrial park. It's destiny is likely to be on display in the lobby of Akrapovic's Corporate Headquarters.

    A complete work of art that works. I think it is stunning. If you want a cheap, practical form of transport, take the bus. This bike was designed and built for one reason, defy convention in the pursuit of a pure artform that shuns logic. Yes there are people that hate it, However, most folks who ride or have ridden motorcycles would want to own one just because of the work that has gone into it and how it looks. A £10 Casio will, almost always, show you the time more accurately than a £20,000 Rolex. There is a market for both....

      nicky howard You do realise the purpose of a motorcycle right? its meant to be ridden as in moving ! you can get away with solid wheels on a car because of the inherent stability of having 4 wheels.
      On 2 inline wheels as per most motorcycles stability is everything and the worst thing you can do is use solid wheels because as soon as you get a strong crosswind your very nice artsy fartsy bike is going to be on its side in a ditch.
