MadMike -- you are a better man than I. Very understanding. Very sensitive to other's sensibilities. You will be a great catch for a woman; watch out. :rolleyes:

Toe -- Don't you know nuthin? When the bike breaks down ya pull them off and "push" the bike with 'em. PUSH-rods, get it? SHEESH!!!

To all others, thank you for confirming my aesthetic sensibilities. Just sorry you lost your lunches. :fie:

I honestly try not to bash other platforms. I even like some Harley classic styled bikes, but talk about a barn-door look and saddlebags that are oddly shaped and too small. I bet 97 horsepower doesn't do much to push that thing through the air. As for Vetter, it was the first, and followed the prevailing style of the time with sharp angular edges with a bit of roundness... this looks like a Santa Sleigh nightmare.

But back to Mike and being nice: To each their 40,000 own..... ;)

 
I'd tell you what I think, but I'm afraid I would lose my hard earned forum reputation for intelligent, thoughtful, sensitive replies. :)

 
Add a couple of wheels and you'd have the universal definition of moto-ugly:

Jeebus! Is that the Aztec? Looks like the moto equivalent of a pug.
Yep...the Aztec...a car/SUV/crossover SO ugly, General Motors made their Pontiac executives in Detroit trade in their Grand Prixs and Firebirds for Aztecs so people might actually see them being drven on the roads of Michigan.

Quite possibly the greatest affront to the eyes EVER created by an automobile manufacture.

Guess you could call it the Pontiac "Vision". Wonder if anyone saw Pontiac's demise in those fine lines of sheetmetal?
