The question on everyone's mind here is: are those customer bikes, dealer demonstration bikes, or magazine test bikes?   ;)

Oops.  Sorry about that.  Yeah, let's leave it on its own thread.  Maybe we can collect some more photos in the coming days and put them on this one.

Am I the only one who noticed the EU version in the white Emulse?
It must be for pre-order from Amsterdam  ;D

It's nice to see things under way.

Does anybody have any idea of the production rate? Are we talking 1 per day, 1 per week, 10 per month or what?

Well I think the first two are for EB and me :)

Now we just have to fight over who gets the white one.

Proto - you're becoming a bit of a wet blanket.  I might have to moderate your posts for awhile. ;)

EB - I like that heated vest - my 'Achilles heel' of cold weather riding is my hands. (Odd image of hands with heels).  The heated gloves (that get decent reviews) are so freakin' expensive.  For now, I use snowmobile gloves and those Hott Hands packs for when it's really cold.

I have no idea what the rate of production is.  If it's anything like the Enertia...we may never know.

KingCharles - tell me why you say the white is the EU version.  I must be missing it.

After a little research, is it because of Sensation White?

Eh. Just replace the letters with numbers, sprinkle a few 'kWh's and 'W's in there and you're golden. Noone will notice.

It's easy: Because I want it to be!

I wonder how they are determining what colors to make them. So far, I haven't heard about anybody picking a color. Perhaps they are cycling through red, white and black for now, and will start tailoring the colors based on what people take.

These may be demo or dealer bikes.
