Interesting looking bike. KTM and Kawasaki have had great success with thumpers. I'm starting to get really fond of the twin in my CB500X which I picked up last fall. Had it out on the weekend and it just sings in the 7,000 to 9,000 rpms. I'm not used to it but apparently they can take that all day. As I have an Africa Twin on order I came across some bad press on the DCT. Thought some of you might like to read.

Honda should put that 500 twin into this bike. The CB has the 17" front wheel - its only weakness for adventure riding as far as I can tell. They're nice little bikes.
Oh, I also like the thought of basing it on the water-cooled XR650R models. Had one of those a few years back, and with e-start and a better subframe it would make an awesome adventure bike!

Harley Davidson Stealth 750 prototype unveiled. http://auto.ndtv.com/news/harley-davids ... ed-1291324This is a custom design built by the dealership in Thailand. I'm thinking... pretty ugly! I hope that they never mass produce something like that.

 Polish from an Italy motorcycle paper.  https://translate.google.ca/translate?h ... rev=searchPhil Horton of the British BMW Motorrad: "In terms of our current offer of motorcycles, it is not as logical as it should be. However, you are in it more motorcycles. We hope that in 2017 will be GS based G310R. this in itself is already very interesting. "
