If I was in this kind of motorcycle market I think I'd look at a Motus.

MST - V4 with 165hp and 123ft-lbs torque.

I'm with you there, those are impressive machines. I've had my eye on them for a while ... just can't justify losing all the goodies on a nice bagger to do it. You can't really complain about the price either for what you get for half of what an Arch is. The only turn-off for the Motus with me is chain drive, I hate them. If they were shaft or belt drive I may consider one a little harder. I understand they are performance orientated so chain it is, but I wouldn't want the hassle of a chain, yes ... I'm lazy, lol.

The lack of a radio is no big deal when you hear that V4, but I'm a guy that also loves all that junk I can keep in my trunk. I don't recall if they offer one for it?

They seem to offer side and top cases. I don't think they have ABS yet.

They look great but what does everyone think of the price?

HD is wondering why it might take 10 years for them to hit $80k.

Easy. They’re going for a market segment that doesn’t include me.

Other than being custom made, what will this bike do that any number of bikes commercially available for under $20k won't do?  One can buy a whole lotta stuff for $80k.  It's a niche market for sure.
