Great read!

Nice article. I felt the same way. I really hope they get the chance they deserve.

I think I'm in the minority because I was never a big fan of the Uly, but the basic 1190 bike with higher bars, more comfortable riding position slightly larger than RX fairing and bags would be very interesting to me.

A bike like that would be fun to ride but still comfortable and practical for long trips. Most "sport-tourers" seem to grow to the point that they swing way too far toward the luxury side and abandon the 'sport' part of the equation.

This is what I'm looking for:

EBR had this lightly modified SX on display at the open house:

851

It's got a small windshield, hand guards, Pirelli Scorpion Trail tires, and EBR branded soft luggage, apparently made by Ogigo. It seems to have attracted a lot of interest.

I want that bag setup soooo bad for my RX. i really need it for my trip to the alps this summer.

Ogio sells the bags; same bags exactly. Now the framing . . you're on your own.

I would like to know how its attached to the subframe. this is the best picture i could find of the bags.

They wouldn't let me get any closer to it for more pics, that was the best I could get.

There is a closeup of this bike inside EBR's offices in this video beginning at about 1 minute 30 seconds, but I really can't see any more than you do in the still pics:
