In Milan, earlier this month for the Riders Party and EICMA show, I spent a few hours hanging around at Officine Mermaid. They'd built this crazy street racer for nothing more than a bit of fun. It featured in the Riders Party. I think it's a Dominator. The pipe has cut-outs (some of them hidden) so it acts as intake and exhaust. The drop bars have a thumb throttle like a PWC (personal water craft, Wave Runner thing). Just when you thought you'd seen everything...We've got something big (for us, anyway) in the pipeline with Officine Mermaid. We'll tell you as soon as we can. G

Honda SLR? I like it, something genuinely different. Has a human been found with hands big enough to reach those levers?
that's loco!
It's the Spillo! (italian for pin), the Mermaid+Riders Italian Mag concept.
Built to pierce the city ;-)
And yes, it's a former SLR from scratch.
That is pretty amazing- truly a lovely bit of work.
