The rear shock looks out of place but otherwise it's spot on.

Is that a customer special loaded with performance parts or is that a showroom spec bike we can buy in the main stealers ?

Fwiw we have had quite a lot of posts on 675.cc about those, in their numerous variants.
Almost universally positive responses across the board from the young racer types to the more seasoned lifetime bikers.

It's OK I suppose....I 'get' the retro bike thing...and I like it too....but I just don't want one.
I tried a Thruxton once and it was laughably slow....that's fine if that's all you want, but it's not for me....I think the thing took about a fortnight to reach 100mph.

Nice colour.

I'm generally not into retro bikes either and I do agree the shock does look out of place but somehow I really like the look of it all together, it's pieces of modern that we all expect and want from a bike
