    <baffled look> what do you mean the seat is missing - it's clearly
    there in the photos

    (and I like the look of it personally, so no, not even close to as ugly
    as many other options)

    Nobody picked it for a VMAX engine though

    That's because it isn't a V-Max engine, It's a VFR800 engine.

    The file is called honda-v800.pdf, the bike is named the "HONDA V800", the
    very first description line on the first page is "Moteur 800 VFR" and you
    still think it's a 1200cc Yamaha ????

    Geeze you guys are humour impaired.

    He was mnaking an oblique reference to the general styling similarities.
    Some people take the idea of naked bikes too seriously.

    That doesn't even look like a VFR-800.

    I think you give Biggus undue credit for obliqueness (or anything for that
    matter).

    Are you sure it isn't the new Yamaha V-Max?
    You're right - I hadn't looked closely at the motor (despite wondering
    how he had managed to expose the clutchpack, duh) but it's definitely
    a V-Max motor.

    Going by the other content on his site he probably has a dozen or so
    of them sitting around.

    It's a very good looking motor! Much more so than the VFR motor.

    Still wondering how he's tied the front and rear ends into it though.

    Mate you've been sniffing too much benzine! (unless you're looking at a
    different photo to me!)
    Besides; a V-Max IS a shaftey innit?
