By the time you see Nitro Naked, it's already gone. It has the same liquid-cooled two-stroke powerhouse as the 'standard' Nitro, the same sturdy handling and the same ultra-rigid frame, 13inch wheels, top-spec suspension and big braking.

The buzz of the Nitro Naked comes from what it leaves out. The handle bars are naked. The tough LCD instrument pod is mounted onto the handlebar crossbrace. The black-as-night paintjob seems to suck in light. It's a hard, technical look, backed up by pure ability. This is one stealthy machine.
