Well, it's no trail bike but has a 1200 V-twin engine.

And delivers allegedly 200 HP  :o

Low and long geometry, suspensions with ridiculously short travel and direct on the swingarm,...

And ugly as hell (IMO)  ;D ;D

Sure strange one ...  :-\
Alone we go faster, together we go further

I do not ride fast, I ride far / I'm not lost, I'm just exploring

This was on 'Visordown' website a while ago. General consensus; made for rich people to stand in their living room/garage/office.
It's like something from a Japanese comic book.
