As far as speed goes it would be suicidal to ride quickly around here as every Roo is employed by a panel shop or wrecker. -- Fless

All I know is that nothing abut it says proprietary to him and a Pag original.  Just another lie...

His company and his product is just a bunch of lies....

Well, right now that statement is unsubstantiated, as these bikes have NOT come out under any other name yet (nor under JP's name in the US due to EPA hold-ups...  ). Let's wait and see what happens before you start calling names.

Cylinder doesn't look tall enough or round enough to me to be large enough to be a 600cc single. Just compare cylinder dimensions to the Suzi 650 single. That thing is huge.

Fair point. I wonder how much bulk would be shaved off by going water-cooled and taking the 50cc capacity difference out of  the stroke length?

[Jae]

Good question, as most of the height and bulk of that engine is in the head, rather than the cylinder.

Quick specs include, 700cc / 65HP Vtwin, Billet foot controls, Billet triple trees, Billet lower legs, Performance Machine Wheels, Performance Machine Calipers, Performance Machine Sprotor, Progressive Suspension and Hand paint (no decals)

price point is WAY off IMHO

[Benjamin]

what happened to this?

http://www.alternativecruisers.com/index.php?topic=13800.0

The motorcycle will be powered by a liquid-cooled, fuel injected, V-Twin 80 horsepower engine , and will have a top speed of 125 mph. It will only weigh 485 pounds allowing it to go from 0-60 in 3.85 seconds. This performance machine will get 50 mpg allowing it to be taken on extended routes. And the best part is, it will be priced under $9988.

IIRC this was priced at $8995 or something like that on his old site before it was taken down..... and at that time was suppose to be assembled in the US, now being built in China it cost more?

[Nate]

Eh, he may sell a dozen of them or so...

[WillRideSomeDay]

He has added a 125cc Malibu and now a 600cc single...WTF?

I just don't see how the big thumper will be that desirable or who would desire a 125.  Am interested in price points though.  Also, in Europe, he had all previous models also available with the CVT.  Wonder if that's coming too???

Be nice if Ivor or somebody would chime in...

[Jae]

I'd be a lot more interested in the 600cc thumper than in a 300 personally. In fact, I'm still thinking an S40 might be one of my next bikes to pick up and chop.

[Benjamin]

well the 125, as in a recent post, in some countries, allows the rider to drive it with a regular car license. it is a niche market that has no real competition other than with scooters.

The S40 could easily fit in my garage, but not chopped.
