Beautiful lines. The Italians just have a way of design where their machinery looks sculpted. Notice the curves on the crank case and head.

You could put this under that heading.  There were two of these at the 92 ISDE.

I had a really close look at this Aprilia at the Cessnock 6 day and it was the trickest thing I'd ever seen up to that point. A very cool bike just dripping with unobtainium bits.
