Looks better as a naked. Looks like a suppository otherwise.

Damn you Hef! :D  I was scouring my files for that; found this instead.

Problem is I have too many pix and can't find anything!

Its' been designed by a team of 20 somethings who don't have a bloody clue. Jelly bean is right!

It should be a mini-V8. Not a V4. It should be sort of naked so we can see the engine. Pipes, I need to see pipes! What's exciting about a carbon fairing or whatever it is. Those front forks are crap. How do they work? Is it real or just a CAD botch up?

Fly me to Italy, put me up in a 5 star hotel, I will deliver. Thanks.   ;D

P.S. What happened to the Suzuki 6 Cylinder thingamabob or whatever it was?  Died a natural death of course. No attempt from Suzuki to step out and follow their instincts and ramp it up to production. They just stayed 'safe' and gave us this years GSXR crap revision. I want to see something new and exciting, not just last years model tweaked up.

Ah, yes. The Tomahawk.   ::)  I odn't know. I'd love to take one for a ride. I ALSO like jelly beans, and while I agree that there appears to be a lack of shocks on the front (just thinking "OUCH" riding it down my street), I would love to take one out for a ride as well. Just to see how well it does, you know?

And personally  I LOVE a V-Four Engine. The ones that I have riden have just been soooooooo sweet.

From the renderings (fancy college talk for 'pictures') I think the Italian suppository would look great showing off the guts... especially the beautiful v4.

But, I think the body would look less odd IMO if the droopy nose and tail were removed.

          Yeah, I think you're right about that. Personally, I prefer to be able to see the engine and some of the frame. Now, I DO like some of the bigger Street Faired bikes, but mainly the ones that actually LOOK like a motorcycle with, as ecosse put it, "with the guts" showing. 8)

Looks pretty bad IMO.  Mostly boring with some ugly mixed in.  Even naked, the parts ain't pretty.

It looks slippery, I feel like I'd fly right off of it if I went too fast.  Though I'd feel a lot like Batman until I hit the ground.
