i would love to have one of these bikes.  check out the May 86 edition
of 'cycle world'  they have the complete breakdown.  they seem to be 
very high on it, and from what i have read i don't blame them, it gets
to 80mph as fast as the new Honda VFR750F interceptor, 5.3 secs.
if you get one lemme no how you like it.  for only $3500 i thinking about
getting one myself.
