right, so the thing is being released in Milano on Tuesday.

155hp with a more upright

I have no experience with this sort of thing, so to the experienced riders out there, with your weight further upright instead over the front of the bike - how do you keep the front wheel interested in the tarmac?

I understand that you lengthen the wheelbase, and relax the head angle a bit....but seriously 155hp on the street?

check the exhaust and pipes.....wicked! and the diameter of the forks!

If i wanted  jap looking  bike i would buy the naked yamaha for 14k  [puke]

155hp [roll] a tickled s4rs has about the same Hp so keeping the wheel down isn't a problem .Cant say the same after you tickle the street fighter a bit :o

Saying that its all about the wrist action and most  guys have had plenty of experiance with that [cheeky]

Be interesting to see it in red [thumbsup]

I like it!
Not as much as the S4RS though. Not sure where it will be placed in the market though. Competition is either alot cheaper or alot faster (Yami FZ, Super Duke and and B-King) Dont tthink anyone is buying the new Brutale or Moto Morini which may be a close match for the Euro Market  :-\
