Not sure this will go down as well as the XT500. However, looking and reading, there's a lot of work gone into this bike.

I quite like the overall shape, but it needs to lose all the (fake?) carbon fibre and grow some mudguards

What a waste of quality cycle parts and carbon fibre.

If they did nothing else but put that suspension on a Ducati 900SS they'd make a miles nicer bike.

Maybe but you'd have to be a purist, I reckon most would just think it's some sort of SP version of a Supersport or Superlight.
