If it came with a shaft drive setup and ABS brakes, I'd likely already own one.
This was my take on it too. That demo was a fantastic opportunity. I will say, it was most strange to just sit on it without somewhere to rest the fingers on my left hand... something was missing

It is certainly a bike to TRY regardless of your thoughts on the matter...
