Saw it in my mates dealer news mag, Loos quite nice, reported to use either a hyosung 650 enginer or a sv , from different sources,
hmm... definately interesting but lacks the pillion seat, not that it's a problem for most but i'm sure a few like the ability of a passenger now and again.
Engine in their video looks more like a hyosung, basically a clone of the SV engnine i'm guessing.
Could be wrong though, especally as it has a few more ponies than the SV.

Watched the Vid and its a Hyosung lump with the curvy carbs atm. Been fettled for 80 brake and $8k (£5k so new pointy money)
Yes please if they imported! The pointy twin spark would be the first change with full racing hindle

:o ohlins suspension and brembo brakes!
It looks like a cross between a Benelli Tornado and a midi moto I had a go on once! I like it, doubt itll make it over to this side of the pond but I'd like a go on one if it ever did
Updated perhaps, but an entirely new release this isn't:
MCN from 2006 (http://www.motorcyclenews.com/MCN/News/newsresults/archive/87883/88300/88372/88377/_/R-EPI-88377)
I'm not sure there's ever been a proper UK outlet though, I've certainly never seen one in the wild over here...

Thought I recognised it from here a while ago. Looks like it would be fun though as it looks like the first American bike that can actually go round corners!

It seems I has all the modifications we apply to our SV's already built in from the start.

yeah, i'm not dropping 45 hp, looks good though, as said will cost more if it ever makes it over the pond.
not quite my cup of tea..i think it looks like its been in a crashed and squashed to fit in a box

Go wash your mouth out with 10W/40 semi-synth, you disgusting individual :D
I like that, but not sure I could live with having a Hyosung engine under me, even though I know they are pretty damn good.

Neah, that's VERY right. Look at the weight of the thing.
167kg dry in standard form => ~190kg fully fueled up
150kg dry in race form => ~173kg fully fueled up...
So, rider + bike:
~270kg standard, ~253kg race.
With 80bhp, the standard is 0.3, the race 0.316. Think about it like this : it's equivalent to a SV with 88.5 in race form, and to a Sprint ST with 102. So it's not THAT bad at all. Plus, the actual low weight of the thing will help a lot with direction changes... So should be quite a bit better than the SV (and quite close to the Sprint ST) if you're talking just one rider.
