It's got a few data bits and perspectives that weren't in the MD review.
They stated it's a small bike, similiar to the Bonneville. Our CB1100 is roughly the same size and weight. This baby has more HP.
Check out the third installment on the Scout:

Good one, it has a nice summary comparo with the XL. And a photo of it with bags and touring seats/backrests. I'm not a fan of the "Vintage Leather" style, but you can see the possibilities.
If they come out with a "standard" version, without the forward forward controls \ cruiser-slouch ergos, I'll be interested.
Anyone heard when some inventory will start showing up at the dealers?
The frame design would seem to lend itself well to easily done factory variations, tourer, standard or even a street fighter.
I read that it was expected in dealer showrooms around the first of the year. Definitely going to Speedweek at Daytona this year for a test ride.
