Any cockpit pictures?

Looks nice. I'd like to know the stats on it, and what the blindspots are like. Seems like they would be huge.

Yes, but did you notice the stowage for the landing gear? Looks like it would be better than frame sliders on sport bikes...

But definitely no knee draggin' happening on that thing.

That's a hell of a long wheel base.

Wouldn't want to own one, but I think it'd be trippy to take it for a few super fast laps around the track

Got these from their brochure. BMW K engine (and switchgear it seems). Starts at just under US$76,000 :shock:
