If you paid close attention, the cab frame and the body panels are aluminum. The chassis is primarily steel with the exception of a lone aluminum cross member. Fatigue isn't a concern in designing a cab because, in theory, it should be a one time use thing (passive safety in the event of a crash).

Yes, aluminum can be safely used in a bike. But if you're going to bury something under a plastic fairing where you won't be able to inspect it, just use steel. Easier to weld to boot.

With all of that said, I highly doubt this is Flo's project. The tooling for such a bike would be way too expensive.

I'm happy to be ridiculous. What was your point again?

better graphics for their deep rim wheels. I would love to see them offer the same decal options as for the Flo30. I think the white background on the decal that doesn't reach all the way to the rim on the 90 and disc look ridiculous. Stupid, I know, but actually a factor in deciding to buy. Not that they're having trouble selling them though :).

If it isn't 650's then I really don't care

you do know that you can peel the decals off right.

or get the stealth ones with no white background

yes. Personally I think it's less visually pleasing than having the stark contrast of white vs. black, especially when you get up to speed and they're quickly flying around the rim.

Stealth Red stickers shown to be worth 2.5 watts. Just saying. ;-)
