2012 Wee-strom

Had a wee look at the new Wee today and it is a very nice looking bike and bound to be a load of fun.  It is a bit of a shame that they haven't been able to move the oil filter as it's still pretty vulnerable sticking out the front (just like on my Vee, although it at least has a bit of protection in the form of it's belly pan) although there is no oil cooler there as well like on the Vee.

Anyway, not ready for a change yet but here's some videos:


This next one needs to be watched from about the 2 min mark (although perhaps if you understand French you might get something out of the first bit)...

  1. This video is very clever. It reminds me of the one with Jamie Whitam test riding the R1 with the guy from the shop on the back of the bike. It was hilarious.

  2. Sure looks nice, but not wild about that white portion of the headlight surround...makes it look cop-like. I am sure you can get it in black I suppose so it blends in.

    I wonder though, those new air deflectors.....I wonder if I could retrofit my Vee fairings to do that.

    hmmmm

    thanks
