Functional Beauty, I like that, kinda like exhaust header wrap on a bobber.
From D-Shark: "In other words when you see the Bike in person the Madstad does not call undue attention to itself. I can however see how the multitude of close-up photos in this thread may tend to lead one to conclude otherwise."
That is probably what the problem is. I have not seen a Madstad equipped bike in person. I do like your reports, very detailed and informative.
Thanks.
