Nobody has yet mentioned the Van Veen, always thought they were great looking bikes

Adding some Guzzi content to this thread. How about a Loopframe with what appears to be a Mazda Wankel installed?

Good article on the Van Veen OCR 1000 on the same page.

According to this article, they're planning to build more. "Only" $125,000.
