Pocket Rocket.

[Skip]

Tail tidy already I spy! Lovely bike Si! :)

[Rich]

Now thats one mean machine,, another has given in to the darkside :smt018 .. I can see an inline 4 sub forum coming on soon :o

[K]

I always think the mirrors look odd - kinda like a bug's antenna.

Definately the right colour. 8)

[Ed]

Very, very nice:cool:

[kwak zzr]

nice bike! glad you got rid of the old scaffolding that held the number plate on, a must modification to the new r6.

[gettin2dizzy]

even the pillion pegs look ace!

[Born again]

Nice ride :smt023

[Rog]

ooooooooooow nice black and shiny. Weighs about the same as a gnats left buttock as well. Enjoy !!! :smt077

[StreetHawk]

I had a pic of one of those on my wall at work.. Had to take it down after I got an insurance quote :-(

Lovely bike you have there.. Best colour by far!

[Jester666]

I seem to be in a minority of one here.
I think it fell out of the ugly tree, climbed back up, slipped and fell out again hitting each branch twice on the way down again!
Sorry!! :D

You certainly are... I think it is possibly the most gorgeous Japanese bike ever. Still doesn't beat a 916 though ;-)

The top fairing looks like a bug!
The silver part of the fairing looks like a Halfords add on,
And the exhaust looks half finished!:D

916 beautiful (999 pig ugly), MV very close second. Best looking Jap bike V-Max IMHO!:D

See I agree - I was just being polite (as the man is obviously very pleased with his new pride and joy) and so didn't mention that it's also annorexically arsed, slitty-eyed, style-cloned, angular and really not my cup of tea. ;)

Still - best in black eh.:cool:

Don't listen to them! They're just jealous because this is the only view they'll ever see of it! :wink:

And VERY nice it is.

That offer of a guide through London to come meet the Soho Massive is still on BTW, so that you can show this lovely machine off to us.

The other offer, that you may have forgotten about, to let you use my bike, while I use yours for this journey is also, still on :)

Somehow tho, I guess that only one of these will be taken up :P

[simple simon]

Soulkiss - I'll take you up on the former, not the latter!

I am glad the bike causes mixed reaction, if everyone liked it I'd feel it was too bland and if everyone hated it I'd think Yamaha had gone too far.
What is funny is that the 'bug looks' I agree with, right down to the mirrors looking like antenae - that's what I like best about it!
I think it looks like a crazy manga preying mantis:twisted:

Well with all the bits off your old bike that are on my bike it would be just like being at home :P

Oh well I can but dream.....

That colour is veeery nice, not seen one in black. Very mean :D

I just wonder if all 600's will end up similiar, I mean the CBR already looks similiar with central intake and minimum fairing. I just hope Suzuki keep there flaring nostrils.
