I like the old school style logo on the tank
Looks like they peeled off atuning fork logo and stuck on wings.

Huh... I hope it can out perform the others... Personally, I dont like the nose of it. Looks like it hit a wall.Too blunt. And not that I am a fan of undertail exhaust, but it looked better then this Suzuki/R6-lookin deal. The tail is not too pretty, although udertail kits will probably fix this. An if there is no undertail exhuast, why not have a decent sized trunk? Something you can at least fit yourPC in! I liked the photoshoped ones better. But hey, if I had money towaste on insuring this machine,I would! For now, I'm stickinwith theproven 954!

[:'(]Wow all that waiting and drama for that fugly piece osh*t. It has lost all of its aggressive lines, maybe Ihave to let it grow on me but initial thought is that it's the ugliest liter bike out by far. A view of the front would be nice though.

The more I look at sportbikes, the more I understand why Harleys have such a following. These things look like power ranger toys. I'm sure it'll be fast though, they finally gave up on the underseat exhaust, it was too heavy and hard to meet sound and enviro emissions snaking all that plumbing through the frame. Maybe my next bike will bea rotax powered Buellafter all.

i hope this new 1000rr looks better in person than it does in those pics. i wanna check it out as soon as it is available at the local bike shops. i hate to say it but this one looks like one of these bikes you let settle in for a moment before you like it. i dunno, just my opinion.
