I didnt think it would be so over the top but I'm pretty impressed... a rolling showcase of what can be done vs what just sells to the masses.
My only question is how much the extra rotational inertia from the supercharger is going to affect the handling. And if the H2 street model is going to be legal for WSBK.

Two words come to mind; Un-rideable and FUGLY! Is this monstrosity supposed to actually be ridden by a human or is it strictly a race bike?

Origami.
Well said. That actually came to my mind as well!!
I heard the street version would ONLY be like 240hp
I would love to get a chance to ride one though!!!

I'm kinda into the new design language... I think it's original at least and a way better representation of what they are going for than the Z1000.
Origami/Transformer but at least I can look at it and know what brand it is right off the bat.

I think the whole thing is kick ass. I am not a huge fan of the styling per se but I like the attitude of "look at what we CAN do". I think the next step is "here is what we are GOING to do". I think there is a place for forced induction in the (near) future and while 1000cc's and 300HP is over the top for a production bike, consider 500cc or 750cc with a supercharger. I like where this is going!

So, they put a watercraft motor in a scoot.
Albeit, where does one use 300hp?
Shit, I can't make use of 140.
I'm sure Stu will see it at Bonny.

It is... nuts, bold, definitely a Kawi with that design. I applaud their balls, honestly.
Styling is... not my cup of tea
Although I have a new-found love of engine cut-aways. Gods, i could stare at those pics for hours
