I was owner before, the 6.5 is a lovely bike.

Sometimes I think we are asking for too much performance. Seriously, all bikes do not need to have insane amounts of power. I really liked the Moto 6.5 when it came out, and almost bought one. It was a great ride, even if it was not overly powerful. It looked great, and in my opinion was a perfect city bike. I was very sad to see it being dropped.

Why I didn’t buy one? Well, at the time, my wife was totally against motorcycles. Luckily I have managed to get her to change her opinion since then…

I really like the look of this bike… even if it does look like it has a beer belly

One of the best bike designs of the 1990s. I especially like the exhaust that contours to the body. Way too many bikes just have a bean can pointing rearward.

Whatever happened to that Voxan bike? Was it ever built? I do like it, but yes, the headlight sure isn’t right.

I’m sorry, I can’t stand that bike. Looks hideous.

The cafe racer looks a lot nicer, but again the headlight looks gash.

Perhaps Starck should stick to designing plastic lamps and furniture…

I prefer Starck’s cafe racer.

Wow, that’s an utterly gorgeous little bike. The lines all flow like a three-line sketch on a designer’s sketchpad, with nothing breaking them.

The Enertia is nice, but it doesn’t flow like that at all. Nor does it have the near-perfection of proportion.
