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.

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.

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 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!
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.
