Imranbhatti got it right there.

The Nuda was a concept bike (a one of a kind experimental model, not for sale), shown at the Tokyo Motor Show in November 1986. It was a high-tech dream bike that never went to production.

Nuda was a fully operational bike good for 280 km/h, using a GSX-R750 engine. Nuda had even some other high-tech features that have not yet gone into production.

I used to dream about this bike when it first came out.
Back in '86 there was nothing that even came close to the modern and space age styling of the Nuda.
If you notice closely, it was one of the first sport bikes to feature a 'Link and Lever' type front suspension.
In other words it had no 'forks', just a link and a single sided swingarm, to which the brakes were attached.

Ofcourse the aerodynamics must have been killer as well since nothing seemed out of place on the fluid styling lines of the bodywork.

7thgear, thanks for refreshing my memory:)
