Just too hard on the eyes. The stealth fighter, as trick an airplane as it is just isn’t a beautiful thing to look at and it’s aerodynamics make it nearly impossible to fly. Motorcycles styled this way will never get my vote. Voxan has done beautiful things in the past and I’m a huge fan. But this isn’t one of the good ones I wouldn’t want it anywhere near my garage.

@ Andy Carter: “… Try and imagine a rider on the bike”. Good point. Anyone ever see a rider on a Wraith? I like the bike, but it looks odd with a rider.

I think Fossil has a cool line of watches by Philippe Starck

Voxans have a fabulous sound, street credibility and Style in spade loads. I find this one a bit overdesigned, and don’t like the modern trend of the tanks going skyhigh near the seat. it wrecks the looks of the RC8, F800 and many more bikes.
Would’ve loved to see the filler cap in the saddle like on a manx.

Stylish, unique and (from what I’ve read of Voxan) a formidable motorbike in a Buellish big torque + sharp handling sort of way. Les backroads et les boulevards.

Very, very European. The tank/frame/seat juncture in the bottom picture reminds me of Ikea and those Danish houses built out of cantilevered shipping containers. I mean that in a good way.
