Saw this today in a rest area on the highway.

Gilera Saturno with Ohlins shock.

The Recycle Monster by Totti Motori.  The concept is so close to being cool, but the seat does not look right with the tank.  The bike has a broken back look. 



I'm pretty sure we've seen this bike before.  It seems to use the same seat & seat combo.

Looks like a suspension linkage.

I can't be sure, but that looks like a DP foam race seat pad for a 90s 900SS with mono seat.  I have one here on my desk  Roll Eyes  and that seat looks like a 900ss mono cut down to the frame.

You're right. Not really sure why I even posted that one. There must have been something I liked about it. I like the concept of the tank wrapping around the front of the frame, but in reality it makes the tank look huge.
