If I opened my garage in the morning and had Admiral ackbar looking back at me,  still wouldn't care what it looked like.

Mainly because I like the technical aspects more than the fashion.
Now with 100% more sarcasm.

I met her once,  very nice young lady, soft handshake.

It makes Susan Boyle look like Pamela Anderson.
Yamaha should scrap it now before it's too late.

It's a fucking M1 for the road - road bikes need lights. Ignore the lights and it looks fucking awesome. The lights don't look half bad.

You are all stupid, slow and blind.

The end.
Significantly faster than you.....

I think it looks wonderful.

Clever design with the lights, instead of trying to make them a feature and failing (as with most road bikes), they've placed them discreetly within the fairing so the bike looks more race bike......

I'm with Moz..... you're all dead to me

Tail end awful...engine looks like an FJ1100 from the 90's...swingarm is horrendous...front is truly fucked up...the Panigale is Cinderella...the R1 is the two Ugly sisters fused together...it could time travel and it still wouldn't be good enough to put up with the looks.

Lord Danoir the first

Actually, Alzo has a point.....

If I had £18k spare then I'd buy one but then I own a ZZR14 and think that looks ok..........as others have posted how a bike goes is the important thing for me.

As for our far northern friend..........arn't you getting a naked BMW thou?............that's hit every branch of the ugly tree.....twice. ;)
