I got to disagree with you there. I do like dual headlights but I don't like the dual round headlights but I also don't like the 1 big headlights a lot of bikes are running today. I love the look of the 07-11 600RR's. The front fairing is dead sexy not to mention the undertail exhaust.

 

I'm kinda partial to the triple lights like a 929 or 954. as for exhaust, i can't stand the look of undertail systems.

but I guess that is why they make all different bikes.

 

I'm definitely old enough to like the older bikes better, but I don't. From a pure styling perspective, I prefer the newer bikes in each of the 4 comparison photos explicitly shown.

Having said that, I don't care for most of the paint schemes of the current bikes, and I don't care for the lack of function in a lot of the styling (particularly the subframes & tail sections).

In all honesty, though, my idea of a 'perfect' bike would be an old Suzuki Bandit 400cc 4 cylinder chassis in full fairings. If Honda (or Suzuki) would bring that engine size and chassis layout back, I'd probably buy a new motorcycle!

 

idk, when i got an F3 i swore i would never ride an rr, that bike had nothing on my F3 and no one understood but me. Ill keep it that way, even tho she is leaving and i now ride an rr. its funny how things change. extra power was a good change though.

 

I know exactly what you mean. I really do like the individuality of my F2. I always wanted one and I'll ride the hell out of it this season, but I think I might sell her and buy a 929rr or 954rr next year. Ultimately, while I like the old plastic and decals, it boils down to the quality of the ride.
