I’m split on this, I’ve been looking forward to seeing this bike since I saw the road going V4rr at Brands being tested and am contemplating it for next year, but…
It’s ugly as hell from the front, but hey I suppose you don’t look at the mantelpiece when poking the fire, I love the side profile so gonna have to take it for a ride and see what it’s like
I do like it, I would just hope that they engineered it so it was a good road bike rather than a de-faired racebike. My gripe with the last Ducati Streetfighter and the Aprilia V4 streetfighter was that they were all too stiff/hard for the road.
I wouldn’t go so far as to say it’s hideous, but I don’t think it’s a particularly pretty bike. I’m not sure what’s going on with headlights on these modern nakeds but they’re a mess, the one on the new Street Triple RS is particularly bad side on.
