I like the front and rear - just don't like those side bits.

...and that's a bad thing, how, exactly?

PS: From where I sit, that thing looks hardco'... so industrial. Needs a taller screen, though.

I must admit I'm liking its looks more than the '06 10, and I definitely think it will look better in the flesh.

i dunno mate

i think it looks a crapload more like a zx10r on roids at the front - a er6n "Ninja" at the back and some kinda warped and twisted killing machine along the sides..

WOW that front-end looks pretty sensational imo - not real flash on the *gills* as some others have pointed out, the rear-end styling *yawn* its very much a ZZR now *fat-arse* is a good description.

*Brain-spasm* - those disc-rotors might bolt straight onto my 12 *gasp* how fan-diddly-tastic would that be ?? I like them wobbly discs, much more orgasmic than plain old boring round discs....

cheers 8)
