Suzuki's Latest
http://business.timesonline.co.uk/to...cle2726587.ece
has its merits I suppose, as this does from Aprilia http://www.telegraph.co.uk/motoring/...t/mfbike20.xml The Times article does rabbit on about how it will need to attract new riders- so the way the law is a changing to discourage new riders I guess we won't see it on the road in the near future. |

Re: Suzuki's Latest
The Mana's really interesting, TWO gave it a solid review this month too... I doubt I'd ever buy one but as a proof of concept it's a total success I think.

Re: Suzuki's Latest
Plus, the Mana still has a manual shift option, thumb operated- so when you want to, you can still shift, ti's just like having a quickshifter. Very cool. But at the end of the day it's all added weight and complexity, and cost.
