I thought it sounded too good to be true, that's the trouble with supermoto...most of the well performing lightweight bikes are off road hours serviceable ones...I guess it all comes back to the KTM 690 for a well performing light weight miles based servicing bike...
All this thread has gotten me interested in it as I am still toying with downsizing the SM-T later on (maybe next year) and a ~600cc SM would be the ticket I think...looked at the XTX but the low quality suspension pretty much excludes it from proceedings for me...I know the engine is a bit lacking but is reliable and can be tuned a bit, but front forks that crap on an SM doesn't sound good...I guess a demo ride wouldn't hurt.
I need to check out the CCM too, they do a new 450 adventure style bike now as well but it's pricey for what it is and the performance specs aren't the best (it is a 450cc after all)...looks like a great piece of kit though (maybe cheap enough if I can find one S/H in a year or so):
