^^^ Yeah, I prefer the look of the R6 over the Honda in that pic. Not my cup of tea...I guess I'll be looking for a used 2007 600RR in a few years instead of a newer model. That is if I don't pimp out my bike: all chrome (including fairings), streched out swinger, neon lights, sub woofer, disco ball...

Striking similarities here:
The more I look at it, the more that fairing bothers me with that long top-to-bottom opening. Looks like...

i dont like it.....there are alot of things i dont like about it, but the main ones have been mentioned.....#1 the agressive lines are gone......i dont like the exhaust, but maybe a aftermarket one would look better...the front looks smushed...too rounded, and not angular enough......

I dont like the looks of it. The front looks like a ZZR, the tail and tank look like a R1/R6, and the fairings are just rounded out. There are no more lines or deep cuts. I like the 07 look over the 08. However, it may look a lot different in person, and since they arent on the Honda website, it may not be the final outlook either. Not sure, but as of right now, thumbs down. But like VP said, it may grow on us once we see it in person or different angle

On a side note. The 600RR graffiti looks sweet.

OH AAANNNDDD GSXR front turns
