I’m with Cormanus. I want one!
Guess I’ll have to be satisfied with my little Hallmark CB750 ornament...

Rode my first 20 miles yesterday, all on local 35 mph roads. It was 38 degrees and I was chilled, but at least the roads were dry. I need to have the ECU adjusted for altitude as the bike was unable to pull more than 38-40 mph on the straights (I weigh about 220 lbs, plus I'm at 8000' and it's very hilly around here). Fourth gear is only for downhills at this point, plus I consumed 1/3 of the fuel tank (about 1/2 gallon) to go 20 miles, so it's obviously running very rich. Fun little bike, though. The short wheelbase makes it a handful at speed. Mine has ABS on the front but the brakes are so weak, I can't imagine ever needing it. The rear brake is non-existent, almost like my BMWs (all in the name of safety, I suppose). Very slick gearbox, nice exhaust rumble, and reasonably comfortable for my tall frame. I think it'll be fun.
