ugliest bike parts (except Concours bits)

[George R. Young]

A couple of candidates, the riveted Honda Comstar wheel (polished and highlighted no less) and the rear end of the BSA triple exhaust.

Yep, that black section really accentuates the ugliness

Except that I initiated this in the "It's not a Concours - other Bikes" category, so it's disqualified.

That's true, upon further review, trump overruled.

I think we need a booth review here on this then...
IMO that ugly potato launcher should have never been put on a Connie at the factory to begin with...
 
Can I get a ruling on Kawi logic or common sense??

[connie1]

Even THE GUY upstairs knows it's butt ugly but I think you're still overruled...were in "other bikes".

[Son of Pappy]

I'll beat Jim to the bunch, please update title to indicate non C14 exhausts   We are on a connie forum so I think the spud launcher is still in, I just got off the phone with a ref who did the Hawks/Stealers game, he would change his ruling if the price is right

Dude ,I LOVED  that Rocket Three exhaust when it came out !  And after careful inspection and consideration --it still looks pretty good .

In fact ,check out the new BMW sixes-seems they liked it too !   (minus the chrome !)

Of course  , my taste has been questioned before....

So friggin true!

Alrighty, here's another, the rear end of a Honda Pacific Coast:

That thing makes the tires look ugly.

[CRocker]

George,

I respectfully disagree with your first two pics...btw, that is a Reverse Comstar wheel...the original Comstars had the edges that are tastefully highlighted in this example mating with each other on the inside of the "spokes" of the wheel...and that exhaust is an exercise in classic beauty!

As for the PC800...

 

[George R. Young]

A 'normal' comstar wheel for your consideration.

[CRocker]

OK...yes...I would have to agree with you on this one...

Isn't that one from a CX500 Turbo?

Love the wheels!  LOL

The comstar wheels were amazing, and I loved having them on my 82 cb900f.  A person would clean the bike, wax the tank, etc.  Then you got to the wheels.   A feeling of "screw it" came over you since they looked like crap..clean or dirty was of no importance.

PC800 even uglier when open:

Hey!  I always liked the wheels.  I had 165k on it before I passed it along to a friend - still going too.  The PC is a pretty cool bike too.  Great for commuting.
