Ah but did anyone notice in that article that it has 'keyless ignition'? KiPass? Could it be? Icing on the cake.....
It looks like that thing has a lot of C-14 parts on it including the saddlebags, headlights, mirrors and windshield at first glance. The whole front end looks the same also. Maybe even the same fuel tank under some new tupperware covering it?
But the pricing in that same article will kill any chances the bike has on the open market IMO.
