That won't come to the US.  The seat height is over 22" and the bike is not 8' long.   Grin

Besides, I'd rather have this modified Suzuki GS1200SS.

I think it might have a turbo.

That is a fine looking motor cycle IMO, many of the details have an understated look compared to the
edgy transformer look that usually prevails.
I'm a late comer to the small displacement - turbo scene having driven Saabs since the turn of the century.
Some nice midrange grunt coupled with excellent fuel economy when ridden gently would have some appeal.
Small turbo's are really practical for the street IMO.

Is it me, or does this bike looks aimed at a more mature crowd? It just doesn't scream 'Fast and Furious' to me.
Show me some luggage and a pillion and I'd start saving my pennies.

i'm a little leary of forced induction ever since my STI cracked a piston
at ~40k miles.  it seems like the obvious steps of forged internals
(pistons, rods, crank) are easily skipped to keep the price down.

Remember what the BMW NineT looked like as a concept?

Not getting excited about concepts anymore. If it looks that good in the metal, I'll be more interested.
