I like the concept but it looks like the industrial design guys got everything they wanted. I like the lines but too bad the foot pegs and stand look like an afterthought. Biggest complaint, the head on view looks like an insect trying to eat a wheel. To see what I mean the light colored bike on the right in this pic

It needs work, I can only assume they will add instrumentation at some point. The whole minimalist trend on instrumentation is getting rather distressing, especially when the dorks give you a gauge marked only with 'H' and 'L' at the end points and nothing else.
