I like the concept bike from the sidecovers up, the sidecovers down, not so much. To me it has the same problem as the Yamaha, the mix doesn't blend well in my eyes. I like the Honda and Triumph approach much better. I have no doubt they will squeeze every bit of power they can out of those 900cc's and have the honda beat for power, but so does the XSR900, and I wouldn't trade the CB for one of those, even if one can zip past me. If I get a chance to ride one at a demo day I certainly will try it, but I doubt it'll move me off my 2013 CB1100 red.
