Err yes....I don't think I'll be putting my order in just yet...

I genuinely can't think of anything to say... more than one person thought this was a good idea?

Better transmission than a DCT or DN-01 though

Good to see something different for a change, I wouldn't have gone with the droopy mirrors but I like the Bauhaus touches.

Why does (nearly) every new design have to be 'radical' when most people want regular good looking bikes like this beautiful example? (Other brands are available.)

The bald dude on The Gadget Show tested it this week. He was priapic with excitement.

Picture 5 is a nice touch - a slide-out mudguard.
Only problem is, when you slide it out it blocks the headlights...

Pic 7 - dimpled saddle. Nice. But the reason you don't find it on bikes is because when you park it in the rain, the dimples allow for puddling. And this saddle is dished. Need a sponge as standard equipment.

Pic 15 shows the enclosed shocks - great for protection from the elements. Crap for heat build up and damping `cook-off`

But if they can come in on their stated weights (159/178 kilos) then they might be on to something, just need some `real world` design thinking first...
