The design is quite modern and well proportioned, I have simply made it more dynamic by shifting the position forward some 10 degrees.<\/p>\n<p>For the rest, I have applied the same recipe as for the Voxan Black Magic that I designed in 2004. The colour codes are quite similar with a dominant matt black, a touch of red and aluminium.<br \/>\nThe overall design is minimalist and serves just one thing, to draw attention to the engine.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Specifications<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>ENGINE<\/strong><br \/>\nRebuilt original engine<br \/>\nCarburation, the air cleaner has been replaced by an air horn<br \/>\nWater
