Wow.
Cool photos.
Bad link.
Sexxay! 
Thank you OldTin.
Lose the rear fender after the tailpiece and it would improve a lot aesthetically, IMHO. Luv the exhaust, though. Very Mike Hailwood.
It's still going to handle like the Exxon Valdez with that shaft drive and spaghetti-thin forks. Perhaps an Autobahn burner?
DAMN...
those are large side covers.
I can die happy.

It's a 'Wing. That's the gas tank.
great googly boogly! That thing is sa-weet!!!
Side covers don't look so big if they're black or body color.

wow is right. i'm pretty sure i know what my first bike's gonna look like when it's done.
Want one without all the work?
That is one of the coolest and best sounding bikes i have ever heard, would love to see that in person.

Thanks for all the nice comments. I just discovered this excellent Forum.
I agree on the aesthetics of the fender. I've considered revising that aspect, but that fender has a "story," so I'm keeping it. It's actually black powder-coat so well done that it's up to the standard of the custom paint on the bike.
This bike is actually a very functional piece and I insisted on a "real" rear taillight assembly. That's important since this bike is not a garage queen. I ride it more than any other bike I own.
As to the "Valdez" comment, I can assure you that it handles quite well. We've done lots of development work and changed lot of obvious and non-obvious details. I routinely surprise riders of modern sport bikes with its capabilities. The brakes in particular are quite spectacular.
I sponsor a vintage road race team, so I am familiar with a few things that work :)
Also, those side covers are hand-hammered aluminum, not the OEM plastic stuff.
Here's a link to a YouTube video of this bike: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DmCnS69QdDw
BTW, I'm currently working on a supercharged CBX done in a similar idiom.
Goldwings surprise a lot of people with their handling. Set up right they'll shame many a mediocre rider on a sport bike. Nothing like having a Goldwing overtake you on the tail of the dragon, sending sparks flying off the running boards around the next turn.
Nice to see the "big girls" get some love too.
Edited to add: OOOooohhhhh that sounds sexy!
Welcome aboard, Randakk! I'm looking forward to you sharing some wisdom here, like on the NGW site.
Wishing I had one

I think I need some time alone.
FANTASTIC!!!

Any good build sites for 'wings?

Pretty informative with Tech.
So glad to see Randakk post on this thread. I fell hard for Naked Wings after seeing your bike Dan and shortly after that found Randakk's sight. That was the inspiration I needed to sell my Shadow Bobber and buy this....
I got it dirt cheap and am starting to gather parts and ideas for my build.
The Red incarnation of RC-003 is Bad A$$, but I am thinking more of a combination of that and this version...
For now I will stay with stock carberation, but really love the look of the dual Webers. (Reminds me of our ACVW roots) Plan is to capture as much of the "Look" of the red version as I can while focusing on making it ridable. Plenty of time for upgrades after that.....
