Looks cool, but I'd be shocked if it ever gets made. A production version also wouldn't look anything close to that.

IMO they ought to have ridden a '74 and also an AMOL Precision/Butler & Smith monoshock version since they have those in a museum. And while they're at it, silver/smoke is much nicer! Rode one for four years before my RS. The R90S was the first real sport tourer/gentleman's express. No stupid clip-ons. If they produced one, it needs a higher fairing, Euro bar and a 500 mile seat! ;) Then I might buy a lottery ticket... http://www.flickr.com/photos/30416042@N06/7288930818/#lightbox/ (http://www.flickr.com/photos/30416042@N06/7288930818/#lightbox/)

 That is the bike that I wanted to replace my R1100S. Too bad I got stuck with Duck fever.

i'd buy one, but agree if it gets made it won't look that cool.  for one it will have a rear fender.
