Pointies are by far the better looking, i heard the seats are more comfortable as well (never rode a curvy so only going on looks)

I like the faired curvy, not the naked but I like the naked pointy and not the faired

I'm on curvey number 4 now

Pointies are better looking if you like fat chicks. Seriously, that hideously bulbar bikini fairing with the huge lights looks like some obese jellyfish is slowly engulfing the bike.

Everyone knows gentlemen like women with curves.

id say the curvey looks more like a fat chick actually
all those rolls of fat.
pointy's are a well toned lady
with big lamps

I like the naked curvy (oddly in yellow for some reason)
and the fully faired pointy.

the position on the pointy was much better for me as i'm 6 foot+
the steering is quicker on the pointy as the acceleration seems to be more responsive too.

No, im afraid not, just accept that the pointies are best.
Lamborghinis have all pointed panels etc , they would look crap if curvy
Just to give an example of pointy and curvy in other areas
