Where is the ABS, traction control, GPS, radio, adjustable windshield all that cool stuff. I do however see it costing $30,000 right out of the gate just because it is in limited production.

Also, the more I look at it, the more scared I am of the exhaust, I can just see people burning their shins on it by accident for whatever reason



Why the fuck does everything have to be so advanced? If it puts out the power they claim it does, looks and sounds cool, does it really matter if it has a crossplane ABS mounted GPS traction control module that fries bacon while playing top 40 hits?

My question always is... does it work? check. does it work well? check. does it sound cool? check. does it look cool?

And $30k for something unique and rare... I'd have no issue with that. They aren't targeting the derf's and OSP's of the world obviously...
