Gee Chris, that thing is so doggone ugly...obscene body-part looking,
actually
With the aero restrictions, I'm not so sure Stohr-boy has the class sewn up.
It is a wide transverse engine setup and that does not have to be the way in
F1000.
I reckon there is still considerable room for improvement in F1000 design.
Some of the carry-over from DSR/CSR may not be optimum, either.
I know other well-backed SR Mfg are building an F1000 too.

Why stop there, Richard, maybe FX700 or FX1000?
There is a beatiful new EFI 1000cc 2-stroke twin just introduced by Artic
Cat (Suzuki)
IMHO, F1000 missed about another 15%+ growth potential by not allowing
2-strokes. Dumb da Dumb dum...
