Let me go on record, IF this bike makes sense I will buy it, seriously, I really like it!

Looks like they've been taking styling cues from MV.

I know the lights are stacked, but they remind me of a Mille R

I do like the looks of the bike, but I'm not looking forward to what will likely be a very heavy price tag.

I wonder if it will finally be able to compete with the Japanese liter bikes now that it's at damn near 1200cc.

his bikes were competitive last year and he had decent riders, gotta see who rides for him this year and how they do in testing/developing the bike, as far as homologation I bet they will make some concessions like thye did for foggarty and his bike a bunch of years ago.

Never happen without major backing, a willingness to adapt and evolve, and a major infusion of tech.
