200hp, 145 kilos...........

Post by cliveyandrews »

*Having stared at all the pics for the last 20 mins I'm not quite so impressed. Sure, it'll be fast but the styling's a bit, er, naff. Someone in the office just said it looks a bit like a crash-damaged Honda Firestorm."

It looks like a half naked Ducati with an Aprilla back end :?

looks very much like a bimota 1100 i saw outside a maccys in spain - was so impressed i went to get my camera but when i went back it had gone :(
nice, but on a naked bike, is all that power needed?
over a ton is uncomfortable imo

bet it's nice on the track tho :thumbup:

I can see why that think it looks like a storm form the LH side view, but other views it is clearly a Duke.

But how small does that motor looks frm the side, just seems to be such a long swingarm......perhaps to stop it flipping over when you let the clutch out :lol:

An object lesson in taking something special, beautiful and desireful...throwing a load of cash at it, and turning it into a dog's dinner.

The lines are all wrong....top fairing looks too far away from the tank and headstock, motor looks untidy. And I would love to see how long a numberplate and rear lights lasts before being smashed to bits by the back tyre.

A big thumbs-down :thumbdown:
