Overall I'm not that keen, especially the one with the bubble fairing. Ugly as fuk IMO. I do however like the blue and white/silver retro style tank. As mentioned that tail tidy looks naff and that does it no favors... no grab rail for pillions and to my mind the bike should be a two up comfort touring muscle bike.
I hope Yamaha aren't still using the original clutch slave cylinder which was always prone to doing seals. The original pipes on the 1200 weren't that loud either so why the huge cans? Noise and emissions.
I've recently sold my 1200 and I think they're still a way more better looking bike than this new version.
