Yeah, Mark! Not ONLY is it "different", but I'd say that it'd be nearly IMPOSSIBLE to ride the thing TOO! I mean, please explain to me HOW somebody could ride that baby when they'd always have to have their right hand held over their heart???!!! Now, HOW are they EVER gonna operate the friggin' THROTTLE, HUH???   (...not to mention that they'd ALWAYS have be STANDING whenever they'd be ridin' it TOO!!!!) 
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)

Well...there's a buyer out there that will love that thing but finding him/her will be the tough part. It certainly wouldn't be me, that's for sure.

It's that extra 1 cc that allows the bike to go to super super hyper drive. Kind of like the amp that goes to 11. It's still better than a really loud 10.

Nice paint - not exactly my cup of tea though. My biggest worry is that you may feel compelled to dress up as Capt America everytime you took it out for a spin. 
Before the war on terror, if I saw an unattended package I used to think "I'll be having that!"

Agreed! You have to admire the detail though.
