C-01 form characterized by a low and long designed car body. A cowl with a tank / body integral forms an impressive silhouette.

A rear wheel swing arm that looks short to be inversely proportional to other unexpectedly long body parts. It is the point that two rear suspensions extending from just under the seat remind me of a nostalgic racing bike.
