    It looks pretty sexy, but 175kg's in combination with just 100hp isn't anything special.

    Probably more than enough for the roads round here if it handles like it looks. It's effectively 50% betterer than my bike on power to weight ratio & I am never wanting more ponies, just better suspension.....
    Looks like a short wheelbase too, mmm.

    I looked and looked and can't find the ugly view? Love it.

    My old F800s was a cool machine but did lack a tad in the power dept. and let down by budget suspenders. If this takes the F800 motor from 85hp to 100hp and reduces weight..and has top rate suspension it will be a blast to ride.

    Nuda fuel tank may look small but the F800 motor was incredibly frugal.

    Trouble with Motard style road bikes is their purpose is too focused. They are not really much good as road bikes. Not enough power to be a track day weapon. Not enough wind/rain protection/comfort and luggage carrying to be a long distance ride. That only leaves day rides.

    Adding hard luggage has always been an instant 'ugly attack' but somehow it seems the Nuda actually looks even better to me WITH the bags and touring screen (that's a joke, but let's pretend it will aid wind protection). Wonder what price it will go for?

    I found somewhere on the net that the wee Nuda tank is still good for 260kms. As I said, my F800S engine was incredibly frugal on gas too.
