Uh, back to the question as posed:

I agree with the previous comments that the headlight cowling is ugly...I keep seeing the curved head of the Alien.  The whole bike is really wide and fat looking from overhead.  If bikes are supposed to be suggestive of a woman's figure, this bike is Rosanne.  But...they are getting terrific reviews and the dealers are stocked up on them so they look to be a big seller.  Eh...different strokes for different folks.

I have yet to see one in the "flesh".  Unless they are coming in and moving out before my occasional Saturday dealer visits take place.  The headlight cowl sort of bugs me, but the lines of the chassis aren't bad.

You really have to see it from overhead.  The tank is VERY wide, as they can be on many cruisers, but the seat seems wide too.  Looks comfortable for those who are used to being examined by the gynecologist.  Unfortunately, can't find a pic quickly to link to.
