You can buy one in the uk with a good discount apparently. Not selling very well.

The torque reaction when you blip the throttle should be something to behold. And feel...

I love Olhao. If you've not found it, the Sete Estrelhas (seven stars) bar is great. A typical old Portuguese bar with dark decor and barrel-vaulted ceilings.
In Alexandro Herculano Street just off the front, near the eastern end of the market.

The foot rest/pad looks to be on a pivot. Why might that be? Is it likely to touch down when cornering? Folding it up is not going to make the bike narrower. Just curious.

Standard for all bike pegs, should they touch down - they’re usually the first thing that does when cornering -then they push up rather than digging in and flipping the bike (at least that’s the theory
)they are old hands at boxer twins ,,,

I've seen several close up, impressive looking beasts, but the tacky looking plain chrome covers over the fuel injection and cylinder heads belies the £24k price tag, and that motor is wide, very wide. It dwarves my own Boxers motor.
And there is absolutely nowhere you could fit forward pegs such as most cruisers fit.

The style is definitely a throwback to them early days.theres a custom one kicking about , chrome gone and lots of black bits ,, it does look well .
but so does the old r32BMW R32 - Wikipedia

My immediate thought was to either black out the chrome, or make some sort of custom finned covers instead. Or even faux carb fuel injectors, like Triumph use on several of their Bonnevilles.

I believe the phrase you want is;
"Den Farden verloren ".
Might have something to do with the price tag. 19 clap ....
Looks and sounds nice, but not 19k nice.

My 1100r is my most favourite ever bike, and I'd like a more modern upgrade of the same basic bike, that does everything it does, only better, and with more mpg, but not sure what to get. I don't want too much plastic bodywork, or race rep style and seating position, and the GS range are too tall for my little legs....

I see your contraption and raise the bar….
7400/8 = 925cc
925x 2 = 1850cc
and another six to play with
