it's worse.... much worse IMO

That's what I'm fearing. It'll be hard to get past the front end. Not that I plan on buying a R1 ever, but Yamaha usually puts out a solid looking bike.

Unfortunately they must of hired some kawasaki designers, because the new R1 is hideous. It use to be the best looking 1000 too. I think the gixxer may be the best looking now and that's really sad.

yeah they fucked up this time though... even from the side... the bike looks like crap...

the front actually looks decent in track clothes from the pic I saw of Spies' 09 WSBK bike...

I just saw the 09 CBR600RR in the Green. Actually really sharp looking. If I were looking for a new 600, that would be it.

Have you seen the green in person? It actually looks really good.

Get a grip, I already knew they were for the side radiators. The only reason I called them "air intakes" was because I couldn't think of another name.

the ztl brake looks sweet, but id like to see a dif style wheel attached to it, and one on each side. the all cf 1125r, and the tracked out one were tolerable to look at-barely-but the firebolt still owns all in buell's stable history to date.

the cr reminds me of a transformer-the light is the head, the pods are the shoulders...
