Nice military, but I like the chromed-out red one more. I've always loved the old chrome-tank BSA's and this is about as close as I can get with a modern bike.

It appears that some designer has got hold of a C5, and look what he's done to it! ::)
It's the "Limited Edition" by Manish Arora, sold out of some site called "3suisses".
They are going to make more of them, if you can believe it.

I think it's kind of cool.  I wouldn't necessarily pick it as my bike, but I like it.

My vote goes to the military.

Form follows function.

 Road vibes and vigorous riding wil knock the chunky mud off when it dries.
No need to wash it, the rain will take care of that.
No need to polish the bright works, weeds and grasses can take care of that.

I like the lines of the new military.  If it only came in Air Force blue or gun metal grey....

They should have given the chrome a black-out treatment and painted the motor, like they used to. I loved that on my iron barrel.  The green paint was flaking off the motor in places, really added to the vintage look.  I could NOT convince some guys it wasn't from WW II

Maybe we could get Ralph Steadman to to a "Fear and Loathing" inspired
C5 That would be something to see!
He is still living isn't he?
