I'm trying to like it...

It looks like he stripped the body work off an RC8 and slapped some XB headlights on it.

The subframe is sick.

Not digging the black crap "hiding" the radiator but it looks 1000 times better than the side pods on the 1125 CR.

The frame, headlights and front end look like every other naked Buell since 2003.

I know, Im up in the air about it. I want something like the Cuda. I would have bought that bike if it ever made to production.

I think there is something special about the subframe, but i cant remember what....

You know Erik didn't directly build that right? Pegasus Racing built it with Erik's designs and help.
