Very nice machine :clap

Weight must be the same as a mountain bike + the engine and fuel :D

Very smart feature with the fuel cap built in to the seat :thumb

Sadly the price here i Denmark will probably be around 19.000 euro with our stupid taxes :blast

So can you get heated grips, ABS, a full set of luggage, 8 extra spotlights and whole load of random metal 'protection' bits as optional extras then??;)

Why do they make them so high nowdays ?
But having said that I don't know the actual seat height but bet you 5P my feet would not be able to reach the ground comfortably.

I think for a couple reasons:

1)you need the ground clearance - it's amazing how easy it easy to end up with the sump on the ground :(
2) it helps if the top of the bike is flat, giving you more room to move around. This leads to an overall higher bike.

You get used to after a while - besides, you are supposed to spend most of your time with your feet on the pegs... not on the ground!

Yes I actually knew about 1) but at the speeds I like to go 2) is irrelevant.
And no I don't get used to it and I have tried on bikes various.
I think it's more to do with ability and I seem to have been at the back of the class when they handed it out.
All of which is totally irrelevant really though because there's no way I can afford one.
But thanks for your thoughts.
