It's a joke. You know, the new reincarnated Bandit as tourer? Nyuk nyuk, chuckle chuckle, elbow in side...

Edit:
I suppose if I would've said "Goldwing", it may have made more sense. :wink:  

While this thing is technically intriguing, it's strikes me as a bit frightening. Also, it seems aimed at people that can't make up their minds as to whether they want to ride a bike or drive a car. Leaning into a corner with a steering wheel has to be a bit disorientating, tho. Outright scary, maybe... :grin:

I guess I just didn't get it as a joke... and wouldn't have with "Goldwing" either.

Oh well. I can be a little slow on the uptake sometimes.  :duh:

IMO, I believe that's going to be another of those "Answer to a question nobody asked" kinda things. Some guy with a "vision" convinced someone with bux that the Carver would be
a "good thing" and will sell like crazy.
The whole thing might sell to, as vidrazor says, people that can't make up their minds...but I bet it'll be an expensive choice as opposed to a REAL motorcycle like, say, a Bandit.   :wink:
