That pipe looks awful... I must say the 14 comes with twin pipes for a good reason, and looks much better than a single, let alone someones old trumpet stuck on the side..

Yeah a bit fuggers really. But what are ya gonna do?

I'm baffled as to why this bike doesn't have a big gloopy smooth fairing on it like the 'busa - horses don't mean nearly as much as aerodynamics over 250kmh, and they clearly don't care whether it's a looker or not... :grin:

i reckon the 14, for what it is, looks shitloads better than the eyeabuser...

On the other hand, I love the 14. I would have to say that I think they are one of the sexiest bikes on the road at the moment, and if I had the money, I'd be riding one away from the showroom. :cry:
