Oh yeeeeah! Very cool lookin' machine there. Kind'a reminds me a little bit of some of the custom-built Tritons with red painted frames and bare aluminum bodywork which I occasionally see out there. 
Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)

If it wasn't for my Divorce, I would buy one of those. Reminds me of an old Norton with the Frame painted in a contrasting color!!! I love it...

I loved my 75 Norton and they are legendary; but this is a better bike! Makes me think of that Ducati frame.

Wow! Nice bike. I've always liked a bike with a painted frame (other than the proverbial black).
Didn't buy into the hype, you can keep the change.

If I buy one of these, it will be about my divorce. If I wanted a cafe bike, that would be the one. Oh, and I do want one.
