I stopped in to the local dealership to take a peek. It's not a bad looking bike in person. The tank is really large, and the fairing is boxy, but it lifts up off the side stand easier than I was expecting, although I don't think it had any fluids in it. The sales guy brought up the performance and I complimented the numbers that it puts up and noted they were higher than the B. Then I smiled and added that all the B's torque is available just off idle, and asked him what kind of warranty the Challenger came with. He took the ribbing well and we both had a laugh.
Also, all these faired motorcycles with two main gauges look like some version of Johnny number 5 from that 80's movie Short Circuit. This one looks like surprised Johnny.
