Deus ex Machina is a nice place to have a cappuchino but some of their bikes are wrong on so many different levels. When they get it right, the bikes are sweet but when they get it wrong like this doggy, they really get it wrong.

Like everything you gotta take the good with the bad.  I see stuff I don't like all the time and other people take out morgages to pay up for it.

But they sure know how to charge for their stuff... but that's OK if it is some trendy, inner-city banker type who doesn't know the value of a dollar or what a real motorcycle should look like.

They should realise that not every crazy Japanese fad will make it downunder... but then again if people are buying them...  ???

Those dumb shit hill climber inspired Japanese fad bikes will never work in this country but the Deus American styled street trackers and cafe racers look pretty good. Despite the crazy pricing they seem to sell as you often see them buzzing around the trendier parts of Sydney.

Personally most of Douche Machines bikes make me want to gag, plus it is just a wholesale rip off of the Japanese custom scene being sold as something they just invented. But what really gives me the horrors is the insane amount that people seem willing to pay for these pox traps.

Besides the Japanese scene has moved on.... 250 2 strokes are what it is all about....Japanese licensing laws make it really easy to get on a 250 and the kids who lusted after a nice RGV SP can afford one.  ;D

That aint no RGV looks like a Gixxer 400 with USD forks. Though added a ton of value putting RGV on the tail.

Funny you can buy all the SR400/WR650 Japanese custome stuff off the net and would save yourself $20k

With the TW, how do you go getting the think passed for you annual rego inspection in NSW? Or do Deus do rego inspections and you just take it back to them each year? I know non of the places that I used to used back when I lived in Sydney would pass one of them.

Yeah but I couldn't find a nice photo of an RGV with suitable accessories.

Anyway pour your retirement money into 2 stroke road bikes, they sure as shit are not making any more and values are heading up.
