Having the exhaust run underneath the engine on the outside of the sump guard seems like an incredibly poor design choice though ...

It looks like the pipe runs higher than the expansion pipe on a 2t. Besides most of them won't be seen outside of Fulham anyhowz ;)

What TIT in marketing said: 'Black, shades. It'll show off nothing. People like contemporary. Just pretend you're batman.'

Exhaust looks like an afterthought but also looks like it has very impressive ground clearance.

The rest looks good as. Looking forward to some feedback from riders!

Probs won't be ordering mine the first year. We wait to see if it's amazing or a legend killer first.

Been doing a bit of bed time reading. It's described by Honda as: '... True Adventure Prototype...'

Seems it will probs be released as a 2016 bike.
So, a lot may still change, so excited! :D
