It makes a bit more sense functionally with the larger windscreen. The seat also looks a lot better with the hump IMHO.

I find this one especially ugly. Just like the Horex, the Playmobil design cues on the engine are just repulsive.

never thought that the Münch 2000 is a good and nice bike. They just wanted to make profit with the old Münch history and create a bike with max. horsepower and they used some of Friedel Münch disign ideas like the closed chain box. But I think these boots are not made for walking, just a show bike for „ collectors.“

No, not all bad. I quite like the platform it’s sitting on.

Just saw a road test on YouTube of the v4 Ducati Diavel and that is fuglier than anything I have seen on this thread. It’s like somebody found the most recent incarnation of the V-Max and said “how can we make that look less appealing?”

I actually kinda owned one of these way long ago. "Kinda" because it was left with me by a friend moving out of the country who was supposed to send me the title so I could sell it. I rode it a few times. Wow, was it awful. Acceleration was blistering, handling was abysmal. Never got the title, gave it away to a fellow down the road who thought it was, in his words, "awesome."

They sometimes come up for sale around here, mint condition, less than $2000 Cdn, even then a hard sale.
This thing is close to unrideable so I hear and it's as ugly as sin but it's right up there for innovation. The Builder is well known to a few here. He has some great stories to tell.

At least it has a long range fuel tank, sounds perfect for the Simpson….
Very true, Clem.
But do modern bikes need to be so obscenely fugly?? Surely a more conservative packaging would make many novelties a lot easier on the eye. Seems everythings needs to exude "aggressiveness" instead of just being "nice" these days.
Maybe we're just not the target group...

Modern bikes fall into two categories “ On any Sunday” & “Tron”…Maybe we're just not the target group...
We buy bikes with a long term view , Tron rent bikes for a year and trade up to something with more plastic that is linked to their phone/ earpiece.
