I must respectfully disagree. re:"It's a vincent black shadow. look 'em up if you havent already"
The BMW is quite stylish, but it is hardly the sort of thing that Hunter S. Thompson would go on about.

colored tires are usually made of shitty rubber, but, could make a bike look rad.

"The two stroke, water-cooled inline four punched out an arm-snapping 120hp, and revved like a bastard all the way up to 10,500rpm. And despite weighing a mere 135 kg, it still needed two front discs to slow it down from a 290kph+ top speed."
