I can't decide if I'm in love with the styling (a nice CF hugger on the rear would help immensely), but I have to say I'm intrigued. The torque has to be beastly.

Might need to test ride one of these....

Astonished that in this day and age HD still bang on about cubic inches when the rest of the planet is on cc.

For sure.  Evil

Wish it had mid controls though. Press seems pretty positive about it....

Motus STR
126 ft-lb 5000 RPM
564# wet

I rode a Motus test bike, think it was an STR
Felt like a big, heavy teleportation device.

Specs would suggest similar acceleration.

Looks like fun, but still too fat. 100lbs heavier than a Diavel?

Yeah...and they're calling it "lightweight".

Well, I guess it is compared to one of their touring bikes....
