Finally Something Interesting!?

"Veloce" seems to have no connection to the old Veloce company, makers of Velocettes.

lovely - where do the legs go?

 

Looks like a dogs dinner, that's got less chance of becoming a salable bike than pissing in the queens handbag.

 

There is no denying it's interesting.

 

3d printed exhausts? I know of a guy who has done that for his 2 stroke.

 

Do you get a pair of flame-proof and heat resistant trouser thrown in for your 73 grand?

 

My concern would be, where the financial backing is coming from to fund this “innovative” engineering pipe dream. I fear disappointment and burnt fingers for prospective customers and crowd funding/start up investors. Andy

 

I love stuff like this but it would be a nightmare to own.

 

Was this designed by car people? Technically novel but this is not a finished product. Too 'bitty' ugly and in the case of the Ethereal model, a lethal chain run.
It looks unfinished, under developed and full of way too many compromises with regard to the rider.
Norton has more chance of a successful rebirth( again) and thats saying something

 

Hate to pour coal on the fire, but just seen the rear caliper mount on the picture i attached - they cannot be serious.

 

Loving the unintentional Pipe Dream pun there, Andy.

 

Plus 1 on the heat issue. My own Panigale V4 roasts your inner thighs in traffic. This is likely to grill and flambé them!

 

Looks terrible doesn't it, especially with the diameter of the rotor.
