Looks small to me...( scale?)

They're some little bikes. This is from when the Dragster came out in 2014. (I'm 5'9")



Amazing to ride, but about as reliable as my ex wife.
Interesting. My son is looking at the Dragster, well dribbling like a senile 130 year old. I wonder what the reliability figures are today?
 
Knowing it's the same size bike, essentially the same weight once non-boat anchor exhaust is put on an older model, all this talk makes me chuckle.

Even the rider triangle is nearly the same, with the exception being the bars.

Visual impact really does a lot to sway people's opinions.

I've never liked cruisers, not even a little, so the new sportier appearance suits me, looks like a speed triple grew to Mammoth proportions to me, which I find a positive and more brand aligned choice.

You can now choose between a huge list of standards lol:
T100
T120
Street Triple 765
Speed Triple 1050 (no longer fits in the "super naked" category)
Tiger 800 (xcblabla street model)
Tiger 1200 (xcblablabla street model)
Rocket 3 R
Rocket 3 GT (let's be real, slightly forward controls do not a cruiser make).

If rumors are true of the 2.78 second 0-60, welcome the new performance king. Puts it 3rd or 4th on fastest 0-60 of all time for bikes, and it's the only standard on the top 10. If the traction control is good it'll be achievable by literally anyone with balls.
it’s gonna be fun to watch the limits this bike is gonna be pushed
 
You mean from the few rich buggers who can actually afford one. Mind you it's almost worth it just to have that clutch window.
That comment was directed towards the Rocket GT and Roadster. Mind you, after my last couple of mishaps on the Rocket, dropping it due to leg giving way, I will be seriously looking at the MV range. The Turismo does tick the boxs...
 
Looks more like a sport bike, albeit a heavy sport bike. Similar to the Ducati Diaval.
