The complaints I am hearing are that 1) it has a radiator and 2) they have gone from the 360 firing motor like traditional Bonnie twins to a 270 degree firing motor which will ruin the exhaust note

Personally I think it looks too much like the old GT1000 Ducati which I didn't find attractive at all with the rear end stuck way up in the air and the gas tank not parallel to the road surface. The GT1000 also had one of the ugliest seats on the planet which thankfully the Thruxton didn't copy.
