Some quotes from the guy unpacking it:
[QUOTE]I'm 6'1 ..so, very comfortable...but a little top heavy i feel.....the mufflers were shipped seperately and had to be installed and then install the heat shields....hhhmmm
first things first...aftermarket exhaust!!!!!!!
BUT...the air intake sounds MEAN...like a big dog....just burp the throttle to 3000RPM and it barks....I LIKE ALOT!!!!!!!!!!!![/QUOTE]
When asked what tires were on it:
[QUOTE]Dunlop Qualifier[/QUOTE]
when asked about the weight:
[QUOTE]feels a little top heavy...
bike will defitnately need a double bubble windscreen....and yes I agree about the calipers..gold is much nicer...[/QUOTE]
and regarding the dash:
[QUOTE]oh the dash is so F*$K'N cool....it has a dimmer on it 4 stages....much nicer with the needle...and floating lcd for the speedo...[/QUOTE]

they should just leave the exhausts like that think would be f*ing loud. I betcha race fit will come out with a sawed off version something like that or an underbelly, kawi was generous and left us a lot of options!!

Hey fish breath - who does that guy remind you of in those pictures? OMG he could be his brother! I'll give you a hint. He's slow, he thinks he is actually somebody important, and he likes El Torito! Oh, did I mention he was slow....

Damn! Did you see how much bullshit they had to bolt on that thing for those underseat cans? That REALLY makes me wonder what other compromises were made for them. Is the shock going to overheat in two laps? Is the swingarm going to flex? Will the electronics overheat? Just exactly how much ass-fucking did that poor bike have to suffer so a bunch of no-talent, squidly posers could have their precious cosmetics?

bov - those are good questions. I would tend to agree that the possibility of radiant heat could be an issue. The R1, CBR, & Ducati's have those issues/complaints on long rides and hot summer days. I guess time will tell.
eazy - Two Brothers more than likely had a pilot or pre-production bike for a very short period of time. We are all jealous that they got theirs before anyone else. They were probably the only one in the US to get it. So... the rest of us have our designs in mind, and are simply awaiting a production bike to put them into R&D stages and test extensively, before putting the end product in a box.
