Default New Suzuki GSV-R

Radical? Maybe, ugly definitely!

At the end of the day, i guess it doesn't matter as long as it's quick, but what the hell is going on around the exhaust hanger??

I reckon this is the result of the aerodynamics work they mention.

It's a bit like the approach from Ducati on the front fairing.

Making it push the air well round the rider. Whereas some of the 2007 bikes the rider was still partially in the air stream.

But what IS that hangar / scaffolding about on the rear?

Stick two bug eye lights on the front and it's getting back to a mid 80's honda vibe

Cheers
