Default 08 cbr 1000RR just went up in looks

I just saw the pic of the new R1. In my opinion, the R1 has been the sexiest bike since its inception... Now, what the hell was Yamaha thinking? I know, weare all honda here, but come on.... what the hell is that pyle crap Yamaha is trying to sell?

So, as my titles states. the RR just went up in the looks department. The RR is is awesome looking compared to the R1. Guess if I buy new next year, its probably gonna be another RR.

yeah seriously...something must be seriously wrong here for Kawasaki, Honda, and now Yamaha to all change their liter bikes to ****...Honda takes the cake as the most normal looking-ugly bike of the 3. This new Yami seriously looks like it's wearing glasses. Suzuki might be doing a smart thing keeping the look the same throughout (at least close enough).

Yeah the new R1 looks pretty ugly lol. Looks kinda mean from head on though I'll admit that.
