Cheers Dude. Interesting comments.
Looks wise I hated the MT10 when I first saw it, just another modern mess, but then you notice after a while that a lot of thought has gone into the styling, it does have a theme and it flows from front to back. But then there are so many nooks and crannies, how the heck would you keep it clean(ish). Also, on the down side, a lot of bits seems to have just been stuck on at the last minute.
That CB1000R you have posted, to me, is just mingin. It’s a cracking example of taking a good concept, powerful compact engine mounted in a light spine frame with a single sided swing arm. Off to a great start, but then they start making it look as silly and ugly as possible. I mean what is that thing on it’s nose about, the lightening plastic and the god awful colour scheme. Buy hey each to their own.
But the latest CB1000R – same basic theme – looks so good!
