I don't know the new one, I haven't seen one around yet but we have a lot of the high revving model .40 hp at 19000 rpm, it's allowable as a first bike !!!! A mate's son had one and he actually survived it ! You could hear the thing coming for half a mile.

Hmmm, less horsepower than an R60/2, and yet more than 10 mph faster top speed...
Weighs about 80 lbs. less...
Gets around 15 - 20 more mpg...
Looks like a race bike...
Brand new costs about what a mediocre condition used 50 year-old R60/2 costs...
Engine weighs about what the flywheel of an R60/2 weighs...
Yeah, I"m sure all the kids will be flocking to R60/2's instead...
