Some things one just has to understand to see the beauty of.
If you’re talking “beauty” here and dislike the Harrier… It says only you do not understand.

It is like candy. Any spoiled kid can and will like it. Vintage wine, now that takes on a matter of fine taste to appreciate.

Nothing is as beautiful as an object created without compromise. Nothing. Just regard this; have you ever seen an ugly bike win the GP?

Now again, try disagreeing…

Thanks, “The Editor” and the other ones that do understand.
I build my bikes to please me, i can not take into consideration what other people will think but of cause it makes me happy when my work is appreciated by others.
This bike was not built to be a pretty showbike, its purpose is to be ridden hard.

You who do not appreciate this bike, or the looks of it, does not understand the core of motorcycling, motorcycle technology or design of motorcycles.

Get a Harley engine and follow the given path of what is already in fashion of bike builders and you are “home safe”. Stellan does not follow any design standards, he is breaking new grounds where no one thought possible.

Now, try disagreeing…

Yep, Thats refreshing.

This guy masterfully fuses art and technology – in just the right amounts of each. Are those push-pull cables linked to the handle bars? That is an elegant solution to connecting from here to there (with redundancy). I wonder how they affect steering feel/feed-back?
