That bike is mental........bit too much power for the chassis (by all accounts) makes for fun rides.

Does look mighty cool, though.

Two of my mates have them. I managed to get a long rideout on one and managed to wheelie it coming off a roundabout while leant over..... Scared the snot out of me.

I want one!

A mate of mine went from a V-twin to a z1000. He is now really missing the low down easy to ride nature of the V twin configuration in traffic...
