It's growing on me slightly. I still want to see it with some mods done and cleaned up alittle. I have a feeling i'll like it better in person. We'll see.

I'm still totally digging it. I know I'm one of the few, but I think it's hotness.

Hahaha....I see it now that you pointed it out

Its not Horrible...I think from a straight on front shot it looks good....the Pipes are def Huge...and look out of place on the bike.

I like the "Magenta" Frame on the white one.

Welcome to ever tightening emissions standards. Those shits aren't going to get any better looking as the years keep ticking.

True that. Cost of new aftermarket pipes should be included by those who are shopping for a new bike.

I heard the video on teh Yammie site...Even with the stock exhaust it sounds awesome! It is uglier but still prettier than the honda and maybe even with the Kawasaki 10...Wonder what the new GSXR will look like?

Who here keeps the stock exhaust on anyway? Not a lot of us. Picture some twin Akras ro Termis on that beast. Use your imagination.
