I guess when not being used as a wheelie bar, that exhaust could work like a wheelbarrow handle and be used to wheel the bike around your garage...Log into Facebook

2004 Honda CB599 33k $3000. Decent price but one big problem

Makes zero sense. There's literally nothing about the 599 that's inspired by Ducati. I mean, I guess the underseat exhausts that were ubiquitous in the era could be 'inspired' by the 916, but considering Ducati stole that first from the Honda NR750 (among many other details on the 916), I don't think Honda would be too happy about that assumption...
I wondered if because it was a naked bike, the monster was it's father. In every case, it seems like more than a stretch.

I mean, I guess if it was just a CBR600 sans fairing in the same way the original Monster was a parts-bin special cobbled together using existing 851 parts, but it isn't. It's got a retuned CBR600 engine, but the frame and everything else is unique to the 599.
To each their own and all that, but that is a PROFOUNDLY ugly motorcycle. I am curious about the phallic cover the radiator has been garnished with, is that a custom piece or is that something people pay money for on the aftermarket?Log into Facebook

The dick covers a rad hose. Imo, the exposed hose looked much better. The left side of that fairing is not as ugly.
Looks like something that would be sold by the UK vendor that used to always be in Streetfighters magazine back in the '90s, the name of which I can't remember to save my life. I want to say streeghtfighterz.co.uk, but that's not it. They sold all sorts of cheap plastic customising bits, especially for bikes like the GSXR1100 that were popular in that scene. Always a hideous colour, always looking cheap. I remember dozens of headlight units, each uglier than the last, to replace the smashed off bits of your sportbike...
Bang on. Ermax. The marketing pictures only show the left side. I think they knew the right side would hurt sales.

LOL. I saw the link and read the text with the picture below the screen (out of view) and thought, "Well what problem could be THAT big..." and I scrolled down.Log into Facebook

Can you imagine buying based on that pic and then hauling the other semi-erect side out of the foam peanuts on arrival? What a bummer...Bang on. Ermax. The marketing pictures only show the left side. I think they knew the right side would hurt sales.
