Wish I could see it without all the junk.  That front support is intriguing. 
Big coilover and a single-side front wheel/axle, yeah yeah, I get that.  I wanna see how many degrees of freedom is in that pivot component.  Looks like the elbow off an industrial robot. 
And, is that ram-assist steering, or what? 

The angle of the grips looks ungodly awkward.

With that bike, he should be wearing assless chaps, an unbuttoned leather vest, a leather beret and nothing else...
