Something doesn't quite look right...bit long perhaps.

Never the less, I would love a ride.

I reckon that's xa great looking bike, I love the triangulated frame and the drag bike swingarm. Trying something new was the name of the game back then.

I'm with you, I reckon it looks cool. That front hub takes 'conical' to new heights.

I am with Firko, the frame grabbed me with the bike, sweeet ride, but then again I did own a 406 ATK at one point
