Very true. The news R3 tries hard to behave like a normal bike in most situations. This may fool riders into thinking that it is a normal bike. Which it isn't.The new bikes do not reveal themselves until people buy them. When you first sit on them they do not have that intimidation factor.
It is a bit of a Jekyll and Hide thing, I suppose. Whereas the Rocket's true charakter would be Mr. Hide, not Dr. Jekyll. What I hear you saying is that owners might discover this fact after some time and then decide it was really Dr. Jekyll they liked.
