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.

Not fer me either. Not a fan of naked bikes.

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