I gotta say, it does look a bit better than the spy photos, and the specs are
But I think I'll wait on passing judgment until I see it in person...

In the Urban model, what is "Hand's Free"? Is this bluetooth? or GPS? Or does it steer for you?

Check out the specs and innovations, comes with a lot of cool stuff.
Hands free= keyless ignition, just get close with the key fob and you can start.

Ok, not the most beautiful one, but much better than a R1200GS I was considering...
Fun for me, comfort for my passenger, it might the touring-toy I am looking...

How far will the bike get away from the fob and stay running?

How about a remote start? Where would the fob have to be then?

I have to admit that it does look better than those spy photos. Not great, but better than some bikes. Has anyone seen the front of an R1200CL ?
One of these things shares garage space with the monster. Except for the hideous headlight array, and the fact that it is an RV on wheels, and being a little underpowered, its pretty nice. Has nice hard luggage, ABS, heated seats/grips, CD player in LH hard bag, Radio that displays what song is playing (if the radio station supports that and even if you cant hear it over the wind noise), cruise control (My fave for slabbing down the 101) and probably some other stuff I can't remember. Best of all it isn't mine but I get to ride it from time to time. It works out good for riding in the rain. Lots of rain protection behind the fairing! real ugly looking at the front. reminds me of this.
I'm glad the stroodle only looks like an ardvark, and this finished edition lost some of the ardvark look. Man that test bike was
Ugly!

Let's not forget the Bimota Mantra, in the "Classic" division...
