It's beautiful! I bet 5500-8000 Rpm driving out of a corner in 3rd is a religious experience on this thing.

Interesting to compare the different specs of the RX (with the RS):
- $19k (vs $40)
- 420 lbs (vs 390)
- 185 hp (vs 175)
- 102 ft-lb (vs 97)
- 13.4 compression (vs 13.6)
- Showa (vs Ohlins)
- Alum wheels (vs Magnesium)

Seems it's cheaper to make 10 more hp than shed 30 lbs! I wonder how much of the price differential is due to mass-production versus down-graded specs?

It's also interesting that EBR has moved to a 22deg rake on these bikes as opposed to the 21degs used on our XBs & 1125s.

The bike looks ok. But I still think it looks like so many other liter bikes out there. Maybe I'll buy one and turn it into a Typhon with the CR headlight.

Remember, they changed that ridiculously expensive gauge and the suspension.

Good for Erik, and all that is involved...I hope the other models are a bit more exciting, and more feasible (price) for common folk like myself!

Yea, the buttons on the new cluster look like they could actually be operated with gloves on!

Not a huge fan of the looks of it, but the specs and the dashboard are incredible. Excited to see what the naked bike looks like.
