Getting there... So a few words on practicality. It's not. At all. The front wheel is too wide, the seat is too broad, it's a little too low slung and that headlight, well, it'd probably be useless for lighting up a road. But that doesn't matter. That's the best thing about Fantasy and Science Fiction, you can be as impractical as you want. And I wanted a bird... Just look at that glorious glass beak, the broad rear end strafed with lines imitating tail feathers, the wing-like fluting on the fairing, even the clawed foot on the kick stand. This was my image for a pretty, beastly-bird looking bike, fit for my road warriors. I hope I have done them proud...
