aspects of this bike maybe ugly but others arent to bad, and technology in the bike is pretty cool

Bloody solid engine too.

I thought ugly too initially but it has grown on me. I don't think I'd have one but it's a pretty sharp price for a new bike.

Not my cuppa tea but they don't look quite so bad in the flesh. Definitely intended for the lady market though.

Agreed. I saw one a while ago and thought to myself "that's not really so bad".

That's not much more than half new price.

If you had paid 24k for it 3months ago it would look ugly again now.Almost half price at 13k.

Might be the sort of thing i'd look at when I'm old and doddery. (Yeah, next week sometime probably)

That would teach you for not shopping around, they've been around the $13k mark for about a year. They were having heaps of trouble selling them.
Auto transmission, ultra low seat height, and baby motor is just too scroterish for most people.

It would be odd if they sold any for 24k.
Honda have dumped the chopper style cruiser bikes also from 23 approx to 15.
I got stung with sp1 from 28.5 to 19.9 so dont mind me im still sore LOL

The transmission has several modes. It can be changed like a triptronic too.

It's like Indy says - Haters gonna hate.

I quite like them. 13.5k is more like it for the price.

Not ugly at all - just what the average modern bike with fairings generally looks like...

It does looks weird - take that front fairing off, put pegs on it instead of footboards and change the exhaust maybe? Still only a 700cc bike.
As for automatic :shutup: If my hand/wrist surgery doesn't sort me out, I might have to go auto or perhaps get a conversion like onearmedbandit.

On the other hand if Knightrider was ever going to be a bike (instead of the KITT car) it would look like this :corn:

Ape hangers and a little less plastic would finish it off!!!:yes::ride:

I am warming to it actually.

Ducati Multistrada is far uglier in the flesh. That Ducati is the Fiat Multipla of the bike world.
