I bought the green one in 2002 when they were expensive. It is a great bike. The snorkel covers can be removed. What you can do is roll some insulation foam around the inner black snorkel tube and stuff it into the frame hole. The insulation holds the snorkel in place nicely. I also cut the nub off the front of the snorkel and taped the hole. It's not too bad looking - better than I describe. I also fabricated footpeg perches to lower the pegs about 1.5 inches, which are more comfortable. My right foot rests on the pipe, but I'll insulate it. You can do these kinds of dodges with this machine without it looking out of character.
I don't know that this 680 triple is, but here is what I would hope they build.
Wet weight - 420lbs (absolutely no more than that!)
Chassis like the Speed 4 (single-sided swingarm please).
50 ft/lbs of torque, 90 hp, 70mph at 4600rpm, No vibration!
Priced at less than $8000.
