Default It's coming.

Not sure if the image works...But center, bottom of the page.

Claiming 130hp, Supposed to be more aggressive styling, and slightly wider look.

I can't wait.

I wouldn't ride a British bike with a throttle by wire. It'd probably stick wide open everywhere knowing their electronics...

When you pay crap for wages, you tend to get crap for employees.

130hp, gobs of torque (compared to an I4) and 10 pounds lighter would make for a very nice bike. I have to agree wih some of the others, the styling is not my cup of tea (get it? cup of tea because it's British like me ). I am happy with my 600rr for the time being, and I can't imagine that is going to change any time soon.

you're right, it's nothing like the cutting edge of styling that your 2001 F4I is.
