seat looks hard core dont it! So do the brakes actually!
But it looks like one of those bikes that make you look bloody good when your sat on it. Open face helmet, flying goggles and a long leather trench coat wouldnt look out of place

surprisingly quick off the mark too .. i despatched the shaft drive version for a while and the torque is nuts after a zxr..
they dont jump very well though

its not the colour its the effort thats gone into it and the general shape .. tank, sidepanels, exhausts ..it looks wrong.. the gpz550 otoh looks well thought out. flames are a bit gay.

in the cold light of day i actually agree with you
the tank is a bit chunky, its those pipes that i love
and for £300 u cant go wrong

i think the second one could look mint with a little TLC and a few hundred spent on it. for some odd reason i like both of them. i think the first one would benefit from a wheel makeover and the second would look cool with chrome round the rims.
