In some ways, but i bet it's very focused and an absolute BLAST to ride... if somewhat terrifying.

That is really hard on the eye. It looks like a really fast de-tailed armadillo

Now we're whistling. 8-)

I'd happily own that. I'd like a little cockpit fairing at least,but that's my kinda bike.

Much prefer the standard Tuono V4 I see commuting into Ware some mornings, they sound the absolute dogs nuts with a can on.
