HenryJLittlefinger posted:Somebody made the point recently that motorcycle design took a big poo poo when it went from physical clay/foam models sculpted by hand to entirely digital graphic design and I think that's why when a really good looking new bike appears these days, it REALLY looks good. I have also ranted about that here before, haha CAD/CAM is just way too powerful and artists always want to push the limit of whatever medium they're working in. Which is fine! It just... doesn't result in many beautiful, coherent bikes.

This time when I look at the new monster, it looks like a cartoon turtle recoiling in horror and pulling his head most of the way back into his shell but not all the way.

I keep thinking about the Gears of War character, with that bulky body and the small head. Though it's more pronounced in that Ducati Lamborghini hybrid.

Renaissance Robot posted:I have also ranted about that here before, haha You're definitely right, but I think you're also mistakenly thinking a person sat down at a computer and designed the bike, but in reality someone drew a vague concept sketch, then there was twenty focus groups asking people questions like 'which of these three headlights do you prefer' and only then did the designer ger given a bunch of focus group approved individual parts to 'integrate' and after all of that the engineers and accountants went through and 'rationalised the design for production' and here we are.

Probably not popular here, but among the middleweight naked, I like how the MV Brutale 800rr looks much better than the new Monster.

What's the equivalent, in motorcycle terms, of a home designed by an architect always having a leaky roof?

I'm not sure what it was exactly, but yesterday there was a guy in my neighborhood with what looked like a Lotus 7 kitcar from the front, but as I drove past it, I found out it was a reverse trike powered by a Honda Goldwing. It was interesting, if not a good car or motorcycle.

An electric motocompo would indeed be rad. You could probably even make it weigh less than 40kg!
