"First Ride" write-up in this week's Cycle News.

Goes like stink and handles very well. Looks pretty good, IMO, and stops
great, as well as being a very comfortable ride.

Problem?

Why in the hell did they put the thing into production with a range of no
more than 100 miles? 3.6 gallons??

Even if I had the 17k or so to buy one I wouldn't because of that fact
alone.

I guess since it's such a limited production vehicle they think guys wont
wanna put lot's of miles on at any given time?

Huh??

It's a poseur. A boulevard racer. A cruiser that'll do a wheelie or a
burnout in front of your favorite biker bar, then take you (and a conquest)
home for a quickie.

You're right, though. Whith that range, it's not good for either commuting
or weekending.

And an insurance quote will stop you dead in your tracks.
