    Mimesis or anti-mimesis...I'm so confused right now. what a mindf**k.
    Perhaps it should fly through the air, then try to land on the ocean. Only then perhaps will we know whether art imitates life or life imitates art?

    Being the nice bloke that I am :)
    Here is a YouTube channel that does 'cafe' style bikes amongst other things. Lots of great craftsmanship here. Not made with angle grinder and spray can of matte black. In fact, not one ridiculous brown seat in sight.

    Unlike the cosmetic piles of **** that wankers make, you might notice that his builds use things that are called tyres. That is because these bikes are made to be rideable. For example, here at Suzuka.

    Yep. definitely a craftsman. I like the way he achieved the embossing in the sides of the tank.

    FFS...really?

    As Dr. Hibbert once famously said when asked how could this be fixed? "Fire, and lots of it!"

    A sad end to another nice bike. Why don't these morons use some old sh*tbox to do this to?

    Pod filters on a 19,000rpm engine...that's a winning formula!

    Why indeed. A shame to have that sitting beside the Bentley. At least I think that is what it is.
