That is the nicest looking bike I have ever seen :O

I'd be tempted to get one just for the looks, but would probably kill myself within 7 minutes.

According to rumour they've ditched the idea of a supercharger (probably from a cost/ insurability point of view)....

....... BUT, it's whispered that it's gonna be bored out to 1500cc. Thumbs Up Very Happy

Could do with a fucking fairing to hide behind! Laughing

1500cc busa engine, no doubt tuned up a bit. Unless your glued to the thing, staying on at speed could be an issue. As could the thing backflipping if it were geared down or released with a short wheel base Shocked

I'd have to agree that it's a bit ruined by the lack of anything resembling a front. The light looks like it's been squashed back and mounted on the tank. Who would want to ride that thing at 180+ without a fairing? Shocked Confused (That's assuming that it'd even do 180...)

LOL, the mt-01 doesn't look hard to beat. Honda x11 anyone? RiDE magazine pretty much summed up that the MT-01 is a hunk of overpriced shite. Far too heavy, too little power.
