Some guy named Valentino spoke of the track surface as a contributing factor in the Yamaha’s performance in Thailand.

Rode one about a year ago. Loved it! It’s real easy to ride at low speed and simply awesome at higher speed. This new version is perfect.

Bummer. Keep your head up, you’ll be fine.

I’ve ridden one. With that much power on tap, and with a suspension that good, the weight simply vanishes.

OK, that’s cool looking. Needs a flat seat, and if this is a street bike, why all the tire clearance for the rear suspension ? Nice pipes . Actually I know the clearance thing is stylish . Very stylish .

Looks good like something from the mind of Oberdan Bezzi.

I like the header too, but are my eyes deceiving me, or are all 4 head pipes different lengths?

And, damn. This looks pretty awesome.

I would guess it’s incredible. Look at the posts by people who have one. I’d like one, and I already have an SDR. Not instead, additional. 😉 The question about the “next bike” becomes Super Adventure S versus this new SDGT. I think the GT, now that it has the updated LCD and things…

I would guess it’s not unlikely. Look what they do with pretty much every engine/chassis platform – maximum options.

It will likely undercut the Vitpilen 701 so I’m interested. I’d still rather it be the new FZ6 Yamaha instead though.

Now, if I could get the CB1000 to look like this, I will 100% buy it.

Carbs are as useful and desirable as the proverbial teets on a billy goat.

And you think anyone at Triumph is so stupid, exactly why?

Very good looking bike. Someone finally caught up to the design of the MV Agusta Brutale. That’s a bike that came out in 2001 by the way.

Yes, well this one is devoid of all the items that would make it legal. Its good to see more from Honda.

Is a 90* V-twin any better balanced than a 270* crank parallel twin with a balance shaft?

The P2’s advantages are numerous – more compact/lighter weight/cheaper to make & service by virtue of only having one head & valve drive-train.

Full disclosure, I have only ever owned V2/V4 motorcycles and the P2 appeals to me for the above reasons..

Why did you have to do that? I googled it and can’t stop laughing. Thanx for making my ribs hurt.

I 100% agree with your maintenance sentiment since the valves on my old SV650 and Ducati are a huge pain, but with a 650cc or smaller engine the additional engine volume and weight end up not being much.

oh, yeah, i did not recall “vultus”…nm4, yes. ick.
