Would like to see a yellow and black speed block version and I would consider selling your left bollock to some unscrupulous Nigerians Slim.  :lol
Best give that idea a miss Daz. Even if the yellow version appears, by the time they'd completed the purchase of your left bollock there would have been another 10 newer versions out

Saw one of those Beemers in our local dealer, finished in brown  :eek  with a quilted brown leather seat.
Sounds awful but I really liked it. It looked like chocolate, and I wanted to lick it  :rollin

That'll have been an r nine t not the s1r  :)
This bike will be a tool. Yeah, it's chiselled looks won't be to everyone's taste but not all bikes are. It's meant to look aggressive & it does.
It'll be very fast, have great handling & have an electronic package to allow you to get the best out of it without hopefully killing yourself. So win, win, win.
Some of you could do with test riding some of the latest models because if you did some of the ill informed comments about handling & nanny state electronics may not be so prevalent.

It looks like it has cheap plastic all over it. Look at equivalant German / Italian bikes and they look ten times better.

Based on the fact people would see me on it I'd rather ride the s1000.

If they give It a fazer style top fairing and a decent sized tank I would consider it. Standard tank is only 17ltr and we all know how backward a step that was on gen 1 to gen 2. I also have a big bang r1 and its a thirsty beast!

:agree

A Mk1 FZS1000 fairing would be a good addition. The 17lt tank wouldn't bother me too much as that should give about 150 miles between fill ups. If I was riding it every day though, a 20+lt tank would be better.

Now that looks cool. Just needs the number plate mount tidying up rather than sticking out like an after thought.

You have all missed the point about this bike.
It was a surprise when it was launched, therefore it has been kept very secret.
If you watch transformers it looks like bumble bee, i reckon transformers have arrived and done a deal with Yamaha to hide themselves here as cool bikes.


Just saying.

I think it looks awesome. Very aggressive lines. Shame it wasn't called an FZ1 though

Hopefully, it will be called FZ1 by the time it comes across the pond :)
