I've seen 2 in person. They're funky as f*ck. They're an acquired taste I think...  |

Certainly one of the ugliest. Odd, because from the reviews and spec sheets, it's quite a performer (it is a Bimota after all). The "naked" one above looks great and one can only imagine if someone else had styled the bike. |

Also look closely, it has a kick starter.  |

Say what? I've never seen a kickstarter before on a 900. What's the story on that?

Look closely.  Obviously this bike has had the make the beast with two backs modded out of it compared to the original. |

I've seen a couple in the flesh, and I like it, its definately different, But then again I did have a soft spot for honda's CX500 when it came out in '79.
So OK my taste's are a little left of field

I found that pick about 2yrs ago. I tried in vein to find the owner. It might be faux, for looks. (?) |

Being a fan of design and folks who think outside the box and all that I really wanted to like this bike, what with it's oval section trellis frame, and Bimota pedigree and all that.
Seriously. It's bad. It's freshman year at design school bad. And it's not just one of those "oh, but when you see it in person it's awesome" bikes.
I've seen one. In person. And it's bad.
They managed to make a naked bike look like it was wearing a burqa.
