Tiggie Posted November 19, 2020 Posted November 19, 2020 MCN has priced it at £12k for the base model and £14k for the sport model. Still a lot!! 1 Quote

geofferz Posted November 19, 2020 Author Posted November 19, 2020 Same 165bhp as before which I'm sure is more than enough irl, but the competition wins in the pub facts dept. Quote
Slowlycatchymonkey Posted November 19, 2020 Posted November 19, 2020 I’d be interested in a test ride. Like the stats, not so keen on the looks. Quote
Davidtav Posted November 20, 2020 Posted November 20, 2020 I’m surprised aggressive riding. Wheelies etc are actually allowed in an advertisement … bike looks great though Quote
Marino Posted November 20, 2020 Posted November 20, 2020 It looks great, almost as street fighter, and 14k is not so much for new. After a year it will be 10k Quote
Valko Posted November 22, 2020 Posted November 22, 2020 I like how it looks. Only a test ride can reveal is it better then my MT09. I seriously doubt based on the fact that although it may be light for its class its still 10 kg heavier then the MT09 and the position of the bars and seat is too sporty for me. My definition of better is relaxed position on a very light sharp agile bike with a lots of torque when doing legalish speeds Obviously you don't want to do high speeds on a naked bike. And add the price pretty sure 99% its not for me. I mean with this price tag I'd rather get Aprillia Tuono v4 1100 which looks better and maybe rides better? Quote
Stu Posted November 22, 2020 Posted November 22, 2020 @Valko with the weight thing you would need to ride it! I have ridden bike that are heavier than mine that are BMW's and they feel so light! even to move them around and also at low speed you can't tell! Some manufacturers have good weight distribution on their bikes Quote
