I like it. It looks like it could rip your heart out and eat it while it was still palpitating. :wink:

Kinda looks like a horizontal Springer type front end. Looking at the profile of the tires, I'm guessing lean.

Back in the early '80's there was a concept bike called the Suzuki Falco Rustyco. Square four motor, hydraulic final drive, hydraulic steering, some sort of pressure sensitive steering and a pop up gauge cluster. I still have the magazine someplace, can not find a good site except this one, and the engrish is terrible! http://www.marga-hills.com/falco.html http://www.marga-hills.com/falco/Falco2a-l.jpg edit: It is called the Falcorustyco. Amazing what correct spelling does to a google search. That Aprilia is t3h w00t!:wink:

Looks similar to Bimota's Tesi 2D http://www.rubbermag.com/bikes/05_BIM_TESI2D.html If you pick up the Nov 06 Cycle World they rode one! I would sh*t on it before I would ride it. I got this smiley just for you! http://i90.photobucket.com/albums/****/onesickpsycho/pooping.gif This one's great!!! http://i90.photobucket.com/albums/****/onesickpsycho/pooppoke.gif This one's pretty good too... http://i90.photobucket.com/albums/****/onesickpsycho/poophorse.gif

The only thing i really dig is the spider eye lookin exhaust. Yeah, I like that exhaust. Doesn't look that comfortable to ride, though. You probably have to strech across the tank.:skep:

Like I said, Cycle World tested the Bimota Tesi 2D that has a similar setup in the front and they seemed to like it... Like everything it has it's pro's and con's... I think the biggest con they noted was the fact that it just felt different from the standard tele-style...

The RAM is BAAAAA'd! Looks like a sheep with 4 a$$ holes! With looks and practicality aside it had better go like a F1 car to get any sales at all...:yikes:

I'm betting its oriented toward drag racing more than anything else. probably never make it to production either due to the design.

The front swingarm is most commonly used on BMW bikes as a anti-dive deviece!
