While I like the aesthetic, looking at the trailing edge of that tank makes my nads hurt... Maybe a barely functional front drum brake is a necessity on that bike.   Lips Sealed

I love it.  however I think it is one of the first examples of 'too cafe racer to actually ride' just like OCC makes plenty of 'too chopper to actually ride'

Like all of Kamura's work, this is art that is also a functioning motorcycle.  Part of the allure of a Cafe-Racer is that it is a simple machine.  A lot of the shiny, artsy bits on this aren't in line with the simple machine aspect of a CR.

Gorgeous?  Oh (expletive deleted) Yeah!
Beautiful? --see above--
Cafe-Racer?  I'm 'warm oatmeal' on that point....
