This has got to be one of the ugliest bikes I've seen in a long time.

The swingarm looks new. Can anybody from the factory confirm that? PJ?

It's the 2-inch longer swingarm from the Ulysses and Lightning Long.

The bike is pretty damn fun to ride. Longer travel suspension than a regular Lightning, and a seat and riding position that puts you into attack mode. Perfect for slicing and dicing the morning commute on the crap roads we have here in Milwaukee.
