I'll take the exhaust from the 1st/3rd bike for my Breva 1100...
To hell with the center stand!!!!!
I vote for the 3rd one. But the engineering for the first and 3rd one is so unique looking compared to everything you see on the road today. +1 for ingenuity
The first and third pics look like different colors of the same bike. The third has passenger pegs and passenger seat attached - that kind of makes me think it might be a production-ready machine too. I'd like to see a pic from the front. edit - just saw the rear suspension was set up different, still a very interesting machine - mgs-01-like.

A little Wee bit. I got that thought and then it quickly passed. I am quite intrigued by that rear shock!!Originally Posted by Bill in OKC

That wouldn't be leftover RSVR Factory gold paint from the Piaggio parts warehouse on the swing arm and sump of that first one, would it?

Pierre is on a tear, alright.

The rear suspension on the red one is indeed interesting. Looks like a lot of weight out there though.

Yeah.....
that does look like a fair bit of weight laying around the axle doesn't it? Interesting and innovative shock/spring layout. But is it a good idea? I'm no mechanical engineer but I would probably stick to a more proven layout choice. Now excuse me while I return to my armchair.

Yup,looking very cool indeed...
...hoping its at least a 940 motor with at least 90-ish HP...
Yup a brilliant system that makes the conventional 50/50 sprung/unsprung weight ratio of a suspension system completely irrelevant and makes all the weight unsprung! Outstanding! Form over function taken to the N'th degree and exactly what I would of expected from Terry Towling or whatever the blokes name is. A skivy wearing dentist's masturbatory fanatasy!Yeah.....

With a few changes and a proper headlight the third one looks ALMOST tollerable but the LCD mirrors with cameras in the rocker covers have my 'Wanker-o-meter' pegged!
Oh, the exhaust is a blatant copy of the Quat-D system that used to be available for V11 series Guzzis. IMHO it looks like someone stuck a bread-tin under the gearbox.

Pete, what makes having all the weight unsprung a good thing? Seems counter-intuitive to my little brain.
I'm with you on the bread tin, though, fer sure.
