I also think they look fantastic...
I sat on one about a year ago, and the tank shape issue was not a problem.
Quite comphy in fact.

Nice machine. What's the function of the fans in the tail unit? Are they powered or spun by airflow?

Fans are the radiator fans. The rads mounted under the rear seat, and not in front of the engine. Fans suck the air though and fire the hot air out the back just like a normal rad fan would.

All i need is a bit of fuel, and a light, and hey presto, AfterBurners

D it's gorgeous. Ride review please.

Gorgeous as it is, the green and silver doesn't do it for me, and I cast my vote for Adam's red 'un

Good man Ed!!

As for a ride review... mine was absolutely terrible to ride to start with but after putting the suspension back to standard settings it handles beatifully! Stops very well with the radial brakes, I thought the brakes on my 955 were awesome but the RS's are even stronger! I also thought that the engine would be similar to the 955i but it revs harder and faster.

So in two words Awesome bike!
