Bigger pics on moto-station.com, including a couple of nudie shots, showing the bike to have ram-air and what are coming dangerously close to being ape-hangers.

Re: WRT's comment about the panniers, here's an idea; why not make the left pannier taller than the right? The right pannier has to do something to avoid that howitzer of a muffler, but there's no such worry about the left.

Also a write up here.
Looks like the fuel tank may be under the seat from the nudie shots.

hah i only just noticed that exhaust.... scary

I think you'll find it uses the same monocock as the zx-14

C'mon Nova, a serious tourer would really need to be a shafty. I know I wouldn't wanna be oiling the chain a dozen times on the the way to Brisbane.

Where do you find this stuff Che? (Thanks for doing it by the way!
)
I'd like to know where you can get the non-grill inserts for the 14.
Cheers,
Pete

The nose is much nicer-looking than the official side-on studio shots hinted at.
Also, is it just me or does having the scale provided by the shot of the bloke sitting on it make it look a lot smaller than you'd think a bike like that would be?
