The engine looks superb,Nice big fins,Just my cuppa tea,The only thing I'm not sure about is the performance being a bit low,Will have to ride then decide,Thats if we get it here as seems its euro 4 and I  thought we have euro 5 soon.

The power to weight ratio is similar to the UC Enfield, so expect enough performance to meet the requirements for the yellow box tax on any road, but not so much that it feels like you have to.

I think they are indeed Asian market only (like the new C90's)  :(
