I don't think the photos really do it justice. I haven't seen it in person but the videos of it give a much better view - including that cool headlight. As far as the secondary muffler... keep in mind the noise requirements. I can't remember which thread I made this comment in but I'll make it here again - the secondary looks amusingly easy to remove. My XT with the Hawk muffler should indicate the first mod I'd make to the RX. I can't imagine what it sounds like with some "less quiet" pipes.
I'm really interested in that radiator setup as well. To cool that much output down... seems like they would need more fins and rows that it appears to have. The transfer tube being so close to the exhaust also has me worried for the long-term life of that hose. I can see some aftermarket opportunities there (ala the braided steel 1125 mods).
Also I think most of us were expecting an 1125R type of look. This isn't it. The bodywork looks VERY much like it was a wind tunnel design rather than a "lets make it look hip for 2014". In that regard... yes it is kind of ugly. But so are all Buells. I mean that in the nicest way. My Ulysses looks like it wants to punch you, kick you, make your ears bleed, then take you out for ice cream. In other words the RX looks more like it was built to rule track days and races rather than the parking lot.
The lucky people that own one won't be staring it in the garage, though. I bet the view from the seat is *gorgeous*.
