Naked's big brother...
 
Can you see what it is yet.....ok, only limited interest here but curious none the less :? Its a work in progress, but has potential I'd say (not mine, btw)

I can sort of imagine a Ulysess to the CityX/Lighting type-a-thing

DL1000, innit?

There was a naked 650 on SVrider a while back. Amazingly good looking, just because of its chunkyness. Don't like this one much, but then I hate those lights with a passion.

Either that's a grubby kitchen or the best garage I've seen in a long while...

Looks VERY similar to the new GSR... (apart from the front lights and exhaust)
Could be wrong though...

Nooo it doesn't ;)

whats with the fugly exhaust?

Interestingly the swingarm looks like that of a curvy, but the caliper is mounted at the 12 o'clock or mebbe half past one...

Its a stripped down DL1000 (well done ChazzyB). Its interesting to see how much smaller it looks defaired. I reckon with the increased height over an SV and wide bars one of these could be a lot of fun on trails and about town. Why would it be different to an unabused DL? Well, theres something fun and 'immediate' feeling about a naked bike, at least thats how I felt when I descreened my bike.

Anyway, a curiosity.
