I AGREE 100%… but… from a monetary standpoint… id personally rather spend the money on an I4 jap bike and throw 2-3 g’s into suspension, steel braided lines, pads, damper… no need for pipes and pc… i couldnt handle the power of a 600 on a road course…

from the back, i like it, from the front i think it looks hideous… Im not to familiar with the motor on it, nor the maintenance intervals… but since the styling ruins it for me, i havent really researched it too much.

414 lbs… 152 crank hp… doesnt really do much for me, I’m certain its fairly expensive too.

it DOES look rather GPish though
