I like it but the front fairing needs some big round lights imo. Also needs the lower fairing.

It’s the type of bike that should really appeal to me, and I’ve no doubt it’s great to ride, but it just doesn’t work.

A friend has one and I have tried it. It is a great bike to ride, lovely engine, handles well and nice riding position. However the looks I find challenging, especially the headlight, looks like a real after thought.

I think it would have worked much better if it was designed as one from the start and not an after thought which had compromises to existing shape and mounting points.

I can't get past the daft headlight for starters! Looks like mechanically it's on the money, but I'm not sure this bike will age well. All a bit too contrived.

I don't understand why the full fairing is a cost-option rather than just being how they are from the factory.

It's ok, reminds me a bit of a trx850, but it's a bit of a not really do anything bike. I've got a seriously problematic fetish for a yellow 1050xt Suzuki though

I am guessing that it the price point they need to hit or some “business” reason, it doesn’t make sense, I agree.

I saw one at Loomies and it did look better in the real life than pics.

All interesting views. Bikes are like women. Looks / performance are subjective. LOL !

It needs twin headlights and a longer tail (even though chopped off tails and a long sticky out bit are bang on trend apparently).
So nice try but a huge miss for me.

Yes, needs lower fairing as standard. Ordered one. ETA Feb 2025 !
