I'm already on the wait list for bike #4.  I'll let you know when it arrives.  Yeah right!  Definitely cool looking but it ain't practical as there's no cup holders.

There is an a@@ for every seat.  Smiley and at 120k it is definitely a luxury toy.

You'd think for $120K they could give you a seat (or some padded skivvies).



And what is the cutout for?



There's the Russell Day Long...... and the Aston Martin 15 minute seat.

Bill, I'd love to !  cooldude But I have to rob a bank first !  Evil

To tell the truth, as I have no car, I need a trunk on  my bike, even on the K8 I had



I didn't keep this Suzie very long : no decent wind screen and in winter time, it's a no go.

No trunk + no wind screen = peace in my bank office !  angel

Seriously!  That seat's (kinda?)pretty, but about the dumbest thing I could imagine putting on a 6 figure bike. 

Obviously this one is not made for comfort or distance,  but wouldn't it be nice if a bike manufacturer would build a frame so that a Russell could fit in a recessed way,  retaining the lines of the bike while hiding the depth of the seat.  It would be a hit.
