I dunno. Maybe too naked for my taste. The megaphone exhaust is ****. I think they missed the look by not following down the frame with the fairing. The resulting look is not quite 'street fighter' and not quite 'street sleek' Ending up somewhere in the middle is not one of my favorite destinations.
Must love Aprilia. I remember my old school days when I used to have a blast on my RS125. I had to fight to keep my high school chicks off me.

I love the less is more look of the fairings and GP style tail. The exhaust looks terrible, but they didnt have a choice with the Euro emissions being what they are. Look at the race version with the Akro exhaust, it looks sick. This bike is going to be sweet!

Maybe i'm a weirdo but i love the look and sound of dual exhaust. A riding buddy of mine has an RSV Mille from a few years back and why they would ditch that exhaust setup for some cruddy megaphone is beyond me. aside from that i would make sweet sweet love to that thing...

The tail just kills the look of the bike. Along with that HORRID exhaust.
Give it dual exhaust and fix the tail, and it would be a decent bike.
Looks like they took the stubby tail off the Buell XB series...

I think these are the baddest looking bikes out right now. The only one I like the looks of better than the Duc 1198
