Interesting- hint dropped on Badweb this morning (by someone who should know) that price will be <$16k. If true, I'll bet that will generate a LOT of interest in this bike.

I miss the old double front light.
I think with two relatively simple fixes it would look a lot better. Double front light and trim down the fan cover so it doesn't cover any of the frame and make it all black, no white.
Forgive my lousy photoshop skills, but I think something like this would look a lot better:
^ I'll bet the top part of the radiator shroud serves as a frame protector, so there's a good reason it covers part of the frame.
I've seen quite few alternate photoshops on Facebook; some really good and some not so much. It'll be interesting to see what owners and the aftermarket come up with.
Those are pretty cool. An aftermarket mod could probably get pretty close to the first one - They probably couldn't do that from the factory because of DOT requirements for license plate and turn-signal placements.
I wouldn't be surprised if the AX looks close to that.
Please no TT. Those plastic 'number' plates were one of the most head-scratching, Harley form-over-function things I've ever seen on a Buell. Though I do like the hand-guards for wind protection.
I hope EBR sticks to truly distinct products (and I suspect as things go on, the RX and SX will become more and more differentiated as they develop them to specific purposes) and we don't see things like the City X and TT introduced as 'new models' as opposed to updates of the established models. I hope that was more of a Harley influence that EBR will get away from.
Nice! Love the blue. Do we know if anybody has taken possession of an SX yet? I don't think I've seen any photos from any owners yet. Who will be first?
