New Ninja, possible the ugliest bike ever, I think so...

Nice pics, the front and rear look slightly less pointy on the SV is that the case or is it just the light.

[Defender]

Nice one Dan.

Thanks for taking the time. :)

[Brettus]

I agree on the ninja, whats with the B1 stealth looking mirrors?
Nice pictures though, can't wait to go and have a nosey myself, undecided on the new gixxer, looks slightly odd but cool, will judge this weekend :)

thanks for posting

[Banus]

[Paws]

I'm off tomorrow with Richie... now you've inspired me to take my camera to capture the silliness :D

Scrap the hideous exhaust and the awful rimtape and that Ninja is IMO the best looking Ninja to date.

As for that Gixxer :smt078 Now I've not been a fan of the way that modern sportsbikes are going (GSXR, CBR and especially R6) lately in the looks department, they all look the same aswell which makes it worse, but that Gixxer in THOSE colours look like some police bike has just s*** it out. I am so glad I am not in the market for a new Suzuki in 2008.

[Ceri JC]

Who the hell designed those mirrors on the Kwak? They look like ice cream tubs on the end of broken pencils... ridiculous!

I'd been looking at the CB1000R the other day. Looks very nice. Not so sure about the headlight, but there are some really nice details on it like the wheels.

Edit: As graeme says, the back end looks a bit different. Could be a trick of the light, but I like it. I thought the pointy's rear end was one of the best, but that looks even nicer.

[Fizzy Fish]

OMG what are they thinking changing to a red seat on the SV?? and the gixxer paint schemes have gone a bit awry lately too...

[Paws]

You should smile more in pics Paws ;) I remember trying bikes at the edinburgh show when I was on crutches, quite a tricky operation that. But I fitted right in when I was trying BMWs and triumphs, most of their prospective customers had walking sticks :mrgreen:

[natcar]

Had fun today and some great bargains on bike gear got my other half a £100 jacket for £60 If I had more time were some very cheap leathers and boots etc but didnt have time to do everything I wanted. Charly Boorman was there too- felt sorry for him -the things you have to do for a couple of free panniers. If you're going have a go on the pocket bikes. Couldnt stop laughing especially when my friend managed to bin it going into a corner. Only problem is I now I want another bike now after sitting on a lovely new triumph.

yeah having gone yesterday there had been quite a large dose of the ugly stick waved around at some of the manufacturers!!

Try Ducati and especially KTM for some some anti-vomit therapy. And don't whatever you do go near the Benelli stand!! (why oh why did they do that to their bikes?? i used to like their stuff as well...)

[Devil Biccy]

I like the blue Ninja reminds of a nice blue Sv I used to have:mad:
