I'd like to know more in detail on how the parallelogram suspension works. It look like its a solid piece so what exactly is compressing?
It's the same as BMWs lever-whatever system.

That radiator is just begging to be smashed by a rock. The whole bike in fact... Looks like something from the new GI Joe movie.

Agreed looks like they just about raided the parts bin and went to town with a tub of super glue.

Looks badass to me, but that oil cooler looks like it just wants to get destroyed.

If they sell it, I'd buy one AND ride it.

Why yes, it does bear a resemblance to BMW's TELELEVER front suspension... (Really god anti-dive characteristics...)
