yea...well apparently they funnel heat away from the rider while you're moving... honestly, I've never had a problem with heat while moving so... I don't know. The styling is not my favorite but I want something different and I believe that between the MV, the Aprillia, the Ducati and the BMW this will be my best bang for the buck option.

There are so many hot literbikes out there right now...almost makes me wish I wasn't such a die-hard middleweight guy. I loved the new R1, now this thing is stomping on everything out there.

You know the Europeans don't allow Jordan logos right?

I can't wait until your closet is filled with Dainese and Puma!

I actually think it's badass looking. It just looks tough, like it can handle everything. I don't want every bike out there to look like a 998R, you know? Of course, I bought a V-Strom so I may be bias.

Tigger, congrats, that is a sweet fucking bike, I like pretty much everything about it. You have my blessing.

I already have Dainese jackets/equipment and A* is made in Italy... just saying...

I've been looking at those Pumas for a while but with 5 pairs of riding boots, I'm having a hard time justifying it to myself...

Lastly, from what I hear, Jordan Racing is on the short list to be riding BMWs next year.
