You thought the 05 GSXR exhaust looked nasty, you'll think the 06 R6 (stubby) looks a bit odd...well wait to you see the DUSTBIN they've bolted on to the 06 FZ1 it's horrendous :shock:

sorry, could only find a small piccy

Come one Kawsaki, show us what you can do :D

its only a chop...
apparently OFFICIAL info on the 06 r1 will be released after the Paris Bike Show (or whatever its called) which is in 1.5 weeks time...
but i doubt there would be any significant changes...

What's with the exhaust shapes this days. Why can't they all just fit an akra/yoshi or something as stocK??

Kawasaki apparently are going to go the way of the belly pan exhaust... you wont even know there is an exhaust there...

Although this looks kinda cool

That ER-6 is a bit different :shock: :shock: it actually gets a rap as well in the latest AMCN, from Glyn Kerr " Legendary Pommie Bike Designer-Genius" - but those footpeg hangers :x :x :x they are :vom: :vom: :vom: :vom: spectacularly UGLY !! foot peg hangers are not a *major* part of overall design ? they need to look good, but bloody hell, those are fully gross.

Zorst look trick :P

Nova said FZ1, not R1... and the bike on that postage stamp does look like an FZ1 with a cast-aluminium frame and the current-generation R1 engine with the canted-forward cylinder block... which, if that's the route Yamaha have gone with it, makes one wonder what they would've done to make that engine suitable for a naked big-bore... the current R1 has the engine charactristics of a 600... there's literally nothing below 7,000rpm.

That belly pan exhaust looks like they stole it off a Buell, and they're just plain ugly
