The Heretic looks neat at first glance, but on closer inspection it looks cluttered and heavy. It purports to be a "performance" bike, but it uses a backbone cradle frame (which I saw referred to as a "trellis" frame "a la Ducati" in one magazine article--some journalists just make it up, I guess). I'd rather have either one of these:

"LUXURY AND PERFORMANCE UNITE" Doesn't seem like either to me. It might be a "LUXURY" to own a $60k bike thats about it. |

I saw an earlier version of the Ecosse on display in Daytona in about 2003. It is gorgeous to look at. I studied it for quite some time. The guy behind it used to work for Confederate. IIRC they got some gov't grants to start up production (in Denver, CO). Bret |

The exhaust system on the track bike (note the numbers on the "headlight") looks better for sure. But it is not a muffler. Some would be okay with using that on the street but it would not be legal any place that I know of. I'm sure it wouldn't be legal for street use in France either. Jack |
