Looks a nice bike but what will it will be like on our roads. If it comes over I wouldn't mind a test ride.

this looks good, but personally i'd be cautious about the reliablity of Hyosung & Fischer

Very nice indeed.

Doing some reading up as we speak.

*EDIT*

Looking at the pics on their own site it looks a bit like an Action Man toy.

At least they've dropped most of the flagwaving- considering it's built around a korean copy of a japanese engine, with european forks, designers and engineers, it didn't make a lot of sense to declare it the first real US sports bike
