MCN reckon it's an R1 with no fairings.


Still confirms market direction though.

Front looks too much like a Transformer for my liking, I like the idea just think the styling has lost in translation somewhere :-\

Typical Japanese cartoon looks. Doesn't do a thing for me but I bet its a great bike to ride.
There's a lot to be said for the cross-plane four but I'd have liked to see a litre version of their triple. A 160+bhp triple with a vertical torque curve in a naked would be a wonderful thing. Triumph are shy of horsepower, shame Yamaha haven't taken the chance to show them the way.
