Not trying to hijack, the colors just reminded me
 
I've been checking the Ustream link, mind letting us know when to tune in? Thanks for all the updates! So exciting!
 
Body work on the barracuda are way better.. and everything else looks the same.. wheels are a little different and the nose piece and sides. Otherwise its the same bike.. what they heck is going on.. where is the naked bikes.. come on ebr
 
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!
