I guess beauty is in the eye of the beholder.  I personally think it's a nice looking bike.  Kind of a retro cafe' take on a brick bike.

I guess my background with cafe racers makes it a little more attractive to me.

I'd ride the hell out of it!

I'd so do that if I could find a cheap crash bike with good mechanicals.

Why does everyone think early K bikes are ugly? Personally, I like the looks of a flying brick K-bike. They are sharp looking bikes. Better looking than some of the newer BMWs.
