I wish I could find some detailed pictures of this but I can't for the hell of it find anything worth while atleast with any close-ups that is.

Personally I'd be tempted to do a combination of both approaches.
I'd lay splines for the curved, outer fairing of the vehicle, then use primitives for the detail, engine, forks, etc... |
