It does not have conventional forks, very similar which if you check that thesaurus is not the same as normal. They made some crazy hub steering system which from what I could find about it was too complex, sortof a less efficient system than the Bimota. I am fascinated by the design you can see the proto front swingarm. Its like an evolutionary precursor to your Tesi, just much more primative. Funny how Bimota used Ducati motors and that bikewas the 900ss motor
 
I guess it would be more accurate to call that a transitional stage between conventional forks and the front suspension on the Bimota, I wish there was more info, the guy who built it was asked to continue building/designing after Britton had passed. The fork tubes thru the gold "faux front swing arm are the same diameter above and below and the upper tripple clamp seem to be very far above the lower and possible grease on the tubes. I bet it has a single shock up front but I could not find any pictures to show proof - just fascinating!
 
I was able to.confirm it has a single shock up front and the pictures make it look like potentially superior design than Bimota, but in motorcycles everything is a compromise. Bimotas system seems like it would be.more sensetive to road feedback(the major reason it is not used in racing) this system seems to have a few advantages and a few disadvantages.
