I agree but it's sort of necessary in the EU. And yet - it seems some folk like it!.

How is that necessary in the EU? I think they could do a lot better and still meet EU specs.

And yes, wtf with those pipes out the exhaust? Yikes

The most rearward part of the bike has to be a reflector.

The single swingarm/mono shock setup creates the backend....way better rear end handling...

Looks like they swiped the swing arm from the canam stryker

They will be good handling and fast bikes....bit more power than ours at stock...6 speed...more torque....whooooosh!

They should let me test it. I'll find the weak points.

I think the intention is to test the bike from a horizontal aspect with both wheels given the opportunity to provide feedback

That number plate mount just wouldn't take it. You'd probably look like you were on a monkey bike.

I'm curious about the 6 speed gearbox with helical cut gears. How high will 6 gear be? What will the cruise speed rpm end up at? Will the gearbox be stronger with that gear config?

Also, with 10.5 to 1 compression, I'm guessing it will need premium gas unless a knock sensor has been incorporated in the engine.

From the seat forward I dig the bike. From the seat backwards not so much. I don't understand the rear fender set up. It looks out of sorts to me. It's like it was an afterthought or they missed their deadline and just threw a random fender on and just went with it. They need a redo on the rear fender as it's a little too 'hipsterish' to me. I still want the bike but there is no love for the rear area (of the bike)..

Looks like the intention is to meet Design Rules for different countries to allow sale, with the presumption that most owners will simply unbolt it and throw it in the shed.

I guess its a bit of a marmite bike, some will love it some won't, personally i think it looks like cross between a diavel and vmax. I can't see me changing, I like the classic/roadster individual look. yeah the pipes need the attention of an angle grinder
