RE: WTF is Suzuki Thinking
Suzuki needs to ditch their S logo, especially for the autos, re-brand their entire company. "Way of Life"...give me a break...
Maybe that's what this is, a little euro trash marketing (don't get me wrong, I prefer European tastes...) going after the wannabe Monster/Shiver buyers...meh

RE: WTF is Suzuki Thinking
I saw the same bike about 12 months ago (I think it was the same?) but it only came in Blue or Black. No big deal if their trying to flog their stuff off with a bit of, um, er, slightly gayish appeal.
But their not alone, check out this concept V4 from Honda, come on, some of guys will think its niiicce, very noice.

If it won't fit on a Honda..........................
Are they making an attempt to follow the Harley 'fashion' image ?
(Everybody knows how they are viewed by real riders)
Long way to go, if so, and maybe wrong bike in the range...............??
As a marketing tool, I think it was rubbish.
Next thing you know they'll be marketing nail varnish and eyeliner to match their paint..............[8D]

How can you call tat a concept when it has no moving parts? Art maybe?

Automotive Art, or Moto-sculpture more accurately.
I think there have only been 2 or 3 examples of Moto sculptures that ended up making it into a viable motorcycle. (Chrisler Tomahawk, and the T-Rex are ridable .. but I wouldn't call the tandem V-8 monstrosity from the 60's "Megacycle"? a viable bike as it's builder was the only person ever to be able to ride it.
I thinkthe HONDA V-4 concepthas a very nice shape, but that's about it.
Maybe it hints at a sportier VFR in the future?
