I would think more affluent areas of Europe with tiered licensing would be the target market.
Many of the other large motorcycle markets rely on cycles as basic transportation only, and purchase simple inexpensive cycles for transportation because cars are too expensive.
Not sure about the U.S. It would depend on the price I think. If it was
just a bit more than your normal 250/300/400 it might fly, but if it started to get close to 600 SS territory I don't think they would sell.
It's not bad, but the frame looks low-end to me. I'm sure it's adequate, but it doesn't have the same race-inspired/mini Super Sport replica look of the 250/4s from back in the day.
It would be a hoot for sure. A 400/4 might be even better...
