I think there's been at least one thread discussing it. I went by my local dealer (Lowcountry HD/Buell in Charleston, SC) today and they already had one on the floor with a black/orange paint job. It looks pretty nice in person. The most pro-Buell guy there stopped to talk for a minute and pointed out they had used sort of a dull nickel finish on the gas cap and several other "normally chrome" parts, but the rocker covers and clutch cover were polished He thought it would have looked classier with all "dull nickel" parts. The seat height is ridiculously low (especially after coming off of my Uly).

I think it's pretty cool, but it'd be cooler yet with an 18" rear wheel, 14" rear shocks, and a normal-thickness seat.

you would be better off getting the R model and putting the parts off of the 1200N that you like onto it.... That is what I am going to do.
