It's good to try new stuff and to challenge convention (says me riding an Enfield 🤣). Usually convention is like it is for a sound reason, but sometimes not. Besides what's wrong with just trying. Apart from the steep swingarm angle, I would love to see it built.

I agree with Propellor, give it a chance. Where would we be if people in history hadn't taken a chance on their beliefs. 🤔
