Viper V10 looks awesome.....but then when I watched the video, realised how clumsy the rider looked on it. It seems he was full stretched out just to reach the grips. Also, like the cbx, not a twisty bike for sure.

Riding position looks extremely uncomfortable and ungainly.  Not to mention his knees are on the valve covers, not where I would want mine personally.

That bike needs to be ridden with a lot of care, watch the torque reaction when he fires the beast up and when he blips the throttle. :o :o :o :o :o :o :o

It could toss you off side ways ::) ::) ::) ::) ::) ::)
