Looks like something from the early 1900s, and yet would be doable as a driver for short squirts around the city.

Ok, that is fucking sweet. I feel a strong desire to have one.

Corey used exactly the words I was going to use.

It appeals strongly to my love of classic design.

Isn't that just minimalist moto art?

I love the hell out of that, except for the gas tank. The sharp, angular lines reminds me of the garbage the OCC guys make. I'd have to make it a little more rounded, but overall, it is definitely awesome!

How about a modern take on minimalist design, by Sachs?

First glance... it looks like shit... then I saw the black one... which looks remarkably less like shit, but still not very appealing.

Think of it from the point of view of someone who is stuck in the core of a big city. When you realize that you might actually be able to take it up and down stairs or in an elevator, without getting a hernia, it becomes much more attractive.

I don't doubt the functionality of it, but it looks like shit.
