Does kind of look like some sort of alien bug, but it's got three hard bags, each are big enough to hold 2 full face helmets, 5.9 gal gas tank, centerstand, gas gage and a gear indicator. Kind of sport Gold Wing.

I know the motor/tranny assembly is practically identical to the SV1000....tons of low end torque from what i've heard. I see it as a poor man's Multistrada...
