Guys, I've just translated a few words in this Super GTS picture and the steering is definitely a closed hydraulic circuit. I assume that a component hidden from our view translates inputs from the handle bars via the hydraulic lines to the push and pull of the pistons on view next to the front wheel hub.
If you look at the front wheel fender you will notice that there is no steering arm dropping down from the handle bars like on all our bikes, so how else is the wheel turned? I wonder if this could be adapted to a true fly by wire system?

I didn't mean to cause so much fuss about this. I only had a little time to spend on my e-mail the other night and I didn't realize that the original site the pic was on would be shuffling the pics around. I just assumed the GTS would be there for you guys to click on. I figured once you saw the bike you'd visit the website address on the seat (attaboy Rob). That's the site (www.lazareth.fr) I was referring to that was in another language Henry. It's definitely one kick a#$&$# looking GTS that's for sure! Love that exhaust hey Adam? I'm curious about that front suspension though? David said he thought it had hydraulic steering, although I've never heard of that, and those two cylinders (one does look like a ram though) are exactly where the shock use to be. And it looks like that knuckle on the front of the front swingarm that the axle is mounted to pivots. Could that be suspension? That's why it would be nice if someone could read the site and fill us in.
