Ive been noticing a departure between styling on European bikes and American/Japanese market bikes. There's this sort of gronky functionality about a lot of the Euro bikes that missing in the American market, and what I've seen of the Japanese market. Things like the Speed Triple, this bike, the bad-ass Super Motard hooligan bikes, etc.
Frankly, I think these bikes are cool as hell, and wish they'd hit US shores. The Speed Triple is here, but I'll be damned if I could tell you where the local Triumph is.
Styling aside, it looks like a nice ride performance-wise. The Warrior (I think the Warrior is the one I'm thinking of) is similarly set-up, with a torquey v-twin and sport-bike-esque suspension and alloy chassis. It is styled as a cruiser though.
