well looks like they were somewhat faithful to the concept. still disgusting, looks like three different bikes smashed together (nose, tank, and tail DO not match) and at least kawi gets a reprieve for not having the ugliest stock exhaust anymore

You got that right. That exhaust is HIDEOUS.

There have been 15,000 gazillion reports of the 'new VFR' going on for a veryyyy looonnnggg time now... I won't believe it until I see one sitting in a showroom.

They just need to keep the displacement, drop two cylinders, make it a 90° configuration, and turn it into a real sportbike. Hello new RC51. I'm still keeping my fingers crossed. But a revamped VFR is still pretty cool, even if it is hideous.

Normally, I'm into "interesting" looking bikes.

Not so much this time...

It better be that Hi tech and that good, cause it doesnt have the looks to bargain with! If it is that good, and I have a suspiscion it will be, it will find a market.
