I really don't consider Kawi in the standings anymore. They fail on so many levels except with 250s apparently.

Speaking of debatable fugliness.....

Okay, I RODE the '08 ZX10R back in March at bike week. From the pilot's seat, it was perfectly attractive, and a very fun bike to ride. However, apparently I've never looked one square in the face.

Anyone remember that Seinfeld episode "Two Face," where he's dating a girl who's really pretty in some light, and then FUGLY as hell in other light? Yeah, I think the ZX10R suffers from that.... Holy fuck, what were they thinking??????????

Honda and Yam are going toe to toe for ugliest liter bike this year.
blasphemy. Honda's got the right idea. YAMI looks like they took the R1 and mated it with a retarded FJR.

I hope they go back to some of their older designs... I'm not liking the new trends.

Different strokes? Coming from you...thats the funniest thing I've ever heard. This is coming from a guy who blasts everyone who doesn't ride track on a R6. Hilarious. Thanks for the laugh.
