A guy in my club has one, he was one of the first in Australia to get one, probably due to the fact that he owns a contract mining company...he also claims his brother or brother in law was the first to import them into Australia, think he lives in Tasmania from memory. How true this is, I dunno.
Been on a few rides where he has brought it along. Gets along pretty well. Not so much in the dirt though, traction control stuffed him in the dirt drags, something I though you would be able to turn off.
A guy in townsville tried to sell me one when I was getting the Rocket III remapped, I told him that I would consider buying one, if it was for my wife. He stopped trying to sell it after that statement...
But yeah, they go pretty well, looks pretty comfortable, but I don't think I would take my helmet off if I was riding around on one, someone might recognise me
