Fast art. Nick Anglada's R1.


Via: Motorcycle News
"The most unusual part of the bike is the titanium finish on the frame, wheels and many of the metal components. Pioneered by a firm called Tanury it’s a finish that was first used for jewellery where an electrically charged process atomises titanium nitride before it becomes a powder and sticks to a chrome finish."

The titanium finish is the last thing I noticed about that bike!!! Even the paisley jumped out to me more than that!

But what really struck me as unusual, is the clear solid mag wheels. Plastic?
