Saw it at the moto show, that trellis frame is scary spindly.

So it should handle just like a Kawasaki H2. [thumbsup]

I love it. Almost.
There are a few things that could be improved upon. I am not a fan of black chrome paint. The Japanese designers seem incapable of creating any organic shapes.
But it reminds me of the new Corvettes, in that, when you see static pictures of them they don't look that nice but when you see them moving at all different angles they look great!
As far as Leno focusing on the seat, well I think the seat would be the last thing you're thinking of when you ride it  [evil]
The H2R pipe looks beautiful and sounds rasty. [thumbsup]
And all at a reasonable price!  [laugh]

Blasphemy!
Comparing the H2 to the Stingray, is like comparing Rosie O'Donnel with Scarlet Johansson  ;D

[laugh]OK...OK.
Rosie O'Donnel doesn't look good from any angle. Not statically or kinetically.
