"Planning to have it on sale by the end of 2017" was the last I heard.
I also heard that their UK R&D outfit "will be operational by the end of 2015", but I don't see any sign of that happening a year later.
They're still recruiting "experienced" staff, which they can only really do by poaching them from Triumph and Norton. The thought of them blowing their £1 million State bung on poaching from State-backed Norton makes my eye twitch a bit.
My roundabout point is that I discount any stories from East of Suez until actual bikes are actually available in actual UK dealers.
