Sub par suspension? How do you figure? It has the largest production fork tubes next to the MV Agusta F4 and offers 3 way adjustability front and rear. The riding position is easily corrected by adding clipons if you feel you need them. The wet weight of the bike is within 10lbs of the 1098. The radiator pods offer functional crash protection and are leaf spring mounted. The radiators themselves are located in the same place as the Ducati GP6. The power curve of the bike is basicly two straight lines and is accessible throughout the power band. As far as width, this bike has a 50 degree lean angle stock and is much thiner than any inline 4 (not to mention twins like the RC51 and the RSV1000). All of this and it is priced $3000 less then a standard 1098 and $2000 less then a standard RSV1000.

More to come. I have to get back to work.
