    I don't like to be negative, because everyone has their own style preferences, but that's really not for me either. I really hope people mod bikes and then ride them because they like what they did, not to sell them.

    It isn't just the style, where the tank looks like the frame is wearing one of those tiny backpacks that girls love, or how it'd look like you were pooping out a taillight, or that whole "patchwork quilt" section with the plate unter the seat, the seat, and that diamondplate thingie bridging the gap between tank and seat. And is that little dohickey hanging off the back of the tank the petckock?
    It isn't the functionality either, where your hands get crushed on the tank in every corner. It's the name that bugs me. Cafe Racer?! Obviously the chopper look is what they were going for with the trailer style fender, the tall tank, and especially the Maltese Cross mirrors.

    Oh, who do I think I'm kidding? I'm angry about it all!

    And I haven't even mentioned the pods..
