Yeh, OK FM,
I could live with one of them.
Ideally parked in the garage alongside the existing Falco.
Plus it does seem to have a mix of the three best colours, black, red and silver!

Yes please
That would go head to head with the KTM Superduke, but with more of a supermoto stylee (which I loikes). Or you could say it goes head to head with the KTM 950 SM, but with a more road bias.
Either way, KTM would suffer.

Well that's definately different!! Tank range might leave a lot to be desired!!
Plus I reckon if you're banging it down the gears, you'll end up with your cock on the clocks..well..y'know what I mean. Not a lot to hold yourself back with while decelerating?

on a practical note .......
Airbox capacity & Tank range ..... doesn't look as though they are priorities here.

The rear wheel needs to have something to stop looking as if its an afterthought.

Nooooo, I mean the wheel looks as if it belongs somewhere else its so far from the rest of the bike.

It looks like a hybrid of the Shiver and the Falco. The fuel tank looks tiny tho.
It's quite nice in an odd kind of way but it's not fer me.

Personally, I think it's uglier than a sackful of arseholes.
