Default Re: New GSX-8S announced

It does nothing for me either. It might be alright for those that just want to go out for a Sunday morning blast and never ride in the rain. I'm looking for a bike that can cover various roles, commuting, road trips etc and it fails on that due to it's impractical design.
Modern regs mean that placement of the number plate is restricted but sticking it on a long pole or dangling it off the swingarm looks horrible. Just extend the rear bodywork for Pete's sake, that would give a bigger pillion seat more space to store a lock etc. Less crap would be chucked over the rider too.
