Now that looks like a motorcycle, not a mass produced appliance. Air-cooled with no ugly radiator or plumbing to obstruct the classical lines.You can actualy see the chassis and engine. Hopefully it will have the same musical exhaust bark as the one Paul Smart rode.

It is not just about nostalgia...it is about charisma. I was three years old in 1972, but I love the sport classics. I really look forward to seeing the GT.



They should have done this ten years ago. They should stop trying to compete head-to-head with the Japanese and do their own thing.

The GT will have a more comfortable riding position, and a passenger seat. On the Duc website it looks like a retro FZ-1. So that addresses some of the concerns in the last few posts.
