Anemic everywhere, no torque compared to every other bike it is sitting next to.

A Honda Rebel does just fine in sweeping S turns. Let's be real, any two random motorcycle riders probably wouldn't even be able to tell the difference between them in normal city driving.

If this starts at over 5000 I really think they priced themselves out of the market for this, including dealer fees, tax, etc.

It will be an interesting experiment at least. If it succeeds maybe we'll see some actual high spec 250s, Aprilia RS 250 anyone?
