October 6, 201114 yr Looks good. Defiantly has got some potential to take on the Pamera and the new Gasgas Radeon. Did they release any mock up pictures of the enduro???
October 7, 201114 yr Very innovative! Has no throttle as it is fly by wire via bluetooth voice command in your headset. Must require proper voice training of various curse words to get on and stop the fecking thing! Edited October 7, 201114 yr by copemech
October 7, 201114 yr Very innovative! Has no throttle I wondered if I was the only person to notice this.

November 11, 201114 yr Hello guys! Can we call this concept suitable for real trial? Or necessary to have second bike for this? What about replacement CPG, I mean spare parts. It can be obtained only from OSSA importer shop? What about interchangeability of parts from third-party dealers? Edited November 17, 201114 yr by mtbiker
