i think its cool they wanted to do there own thing and make a few. imo there ugly as shit and most likely lost all the great handeling aspects of this bike. it looks like they are using the rear swing arm cut in half some how as the front forks or something. IDK i dont think its cool either that they took the one great AMERICAN sport bike and then slap a JAP name on it..... they could of come up with something better or atleast just kept quiet about what the name meant. and lastly they took 47-50 of these limited bikes and botched them and then to sell them for almost as much as an 1190rs.... it just doesnt sit well with me. like i said make a few cool, 47 ehhh |

If they offered it for sale, and depending on the cost, I would love to buy a tailsection/airbox kit. |

I don't have a problem with the name. Isn't it a Japanese Samurai? I'm good with the Japanese as they are one of our strongest allies in the Pacific theater and they also happen to make really good motorcycles. |

I know bikes with looks like the CR might require an acquired taste for some people, per what others have said, but when I look at this I can't help but think fugly. |

I've seen 2 of the Ronin bikes. Don't know how many they made. Almost got to ride one.

Lately I've been helping Dan And Cil at NRHS. Old school Buell and Sportster Hot-Rod-Shop. Trying to make that permanent, I really like them and the shop is 3 minutes from my house. We'll see. Z |
