I got this from a forum site. Someone followed this test rider into a gas station and took this photo with his cell phone.

Seemingly, the whole frame / sub frame, pillion grab rails and pillion footrest hangers are one piece!  Either a very cool thing or dangerous if you drop it and bend it...

Looks good though.  :thumbsup

Thats a Ducati frame, they just painted it silver to confuse folks :D

And this is what happens if you show up with a X-brand bike on a Tiger meeting :shock:

Why do the riders in these shots always look like robots with dark glasses?

Looks really BMW F800GS inspired. Which is the bike I was looking at before I got my ol' steamer.

Trying to appeal to Bring More Worries fraternity  :wink:

Personally I like the all steel frame, it was on my list of must have when I started making a plan to build my own, can be welded by any yak herder in the middle of Wherethefuckarewestan. Triumph beat me to it  8)
