Not sure if they're trying to do something like the Peter Norris concept chopper or not.

What's with the auto trans on new bikes? Shifting gears is like my third or fourth favorite part of motorcycling.

Now I don't feel quite so bad about not liking ANYTHING about it. If they actually built something that looked like Akira's bike and performed, that'd be one thing.

Well, I like the 25 color LED display and low seat height.

The LED thing is neat and I can see how it might be useful to be able to change to a gauge color that you actually like. But there's nothing about the styling that I actually like.
