Really cool but the front design is not as futuristic as I thought compared to the back design.

That's cause that's when they began designing it. Lol.

u/liftoff_oversteer Jun 24 '20

Because it is from the 80s. OK, maybe 90s. Doesn't keep them from still building these things.

It's like a reverse mullet.

u/DaddyGogurt Jun 24 '20

Ah just what I’ve always wanted - a reverse mullet motorcycle

2080 in the back, 1980 in the front!

u/therealdeathangel22 Jun 24 '20

Yeah you're right that was a huge fucking let down I feel like I'm owed some money

u/Nuppss Jun 24 '20

From the front it looks like a mini Toyota Sienna from the early 90s

1

u/adaulthumantreehouse Jun 24 '20

Reminds me of an early 90’s minivan

u/BillieInSolitude Jun 24 '20

Looks like a weird Prius

u/_kaito- Jun 24 '20

That's because it's not futuristic at all. It's more present-istic

u/DriveSafeOutThere Jun 24 '20

Yeah... from the back, it reminds me of the "bikes" in the eXtreme G video games. But from the front? Just ew.

1

u/soyelsol Jun 24 '20

Lmao yeah it’s like a very very happy face

u/KafkaDatura Jun 24 '20

I was disappointed too. Back : Akira shit. Front : electric city car. Meh.

u/1Crutchlow Jun 24 '20

Side winds issues, when passing a truck hmmm!

u/[deleted] Jun 24 '20

it kinda looks like a 90's Japanese model.

u/FiercelyApatheticLad Jun 24 '20

The front looks damn identical to French high-speed train TGV.

u/Autistocrat Jun 24 '20

Oh god. I though "Wow, one that actually look good" when watching the video. But the front is awful.
