The bikes are the crudest in a appearance that I have seen amongst modern bikes. Welding left raw (not ground and finished), parts look to be bolted on where ever their is a space on the frame it will fit, etc. Even the salesman agrees with me. Although I see a few differences in the different bikes, basically they look a like to me. I assume the engineering is as good as advertised which will make them worth the cost, but they could use a little help in the aesthetics department.

You've hurt my feelings. Very true. Like children, everyone likes their own more than others.

In the past 5 years I have owned 2 Hondas, 1 Yamaha and a HD. I don't have a brand that I am stuck on, just how each particular bike meets my current needs. Never understood this "alligence" thing to a manufacturer.... Well, maybe I would if they were paying me to ride it

Anyone tried the Pirelli Angel ST tires yet? Thinking about ordering a set because they are the dual compound... My current Metzler Racetec K2's are wearing fast. I don't do track days so I really don't need a track tire.
