I think this thing is bad *****, and it may put a big dent in my bank account when it becomes available.

That looks almost as dorky as Dan Gurney's Alligator...

I think I'll stick with my CBR600F4.

It's Italian so I guess they know best how things should look.
Anyway, the press is extremely positive about it's handling and what's most important for me : it's narrow like a motorcycle so very handy over here with all the traffic jams.

I've seen many variations on that theme and that is one of the better ones. Honestly looks as though it was designed by a snowmobile enthusiast.

I used to live down the valley from you Mark, and I honestly thought you'd be more interested in something like this 1952 Bombardier Spyder for your trips to the store and such....

Bim,

That thing would be great in the winter, but I have a feeling it might throw up a few sparks on the highway during the summer. I also have a feeling that it wouldn't be as much fun in all the twisties around the Paonia Resevoir.
