Looks are very important in a bike.Looks are more important than comfort and performance unless it reachesicon status like the busa. But really, have the Japanese ever really designed anything beautiful? they aren't Italian. So give those clever little people a break, they are efficient, but have no sense of style.

I can't agree with that! The previous 1000RRs look sweet to me as well as the new 600s. I am still satisfied with my 04'. I wish they would have kept the front of the 1000 and then added the shorty tail...that would have been nice.

I personally would love to see this machine in my garage.

Not sure what year you're referring to but I have the 07 Repsol edition and I love it. As far as the 08 goes I really like the integrated mirrors and turn signals. I may see if I can modify my 07 with those mirrors/signals. Bringing the exhaust from under the tail to the right side doesn't do much for me nor does the odd ball design of the new exhaust, but, it may grow on me. I've gotta see one in person before I can a giveit thumbs up or down.
