In my opinion almost anything looks better than the curvy fairing...

What it needs, I think, is an angular beam frame to give it a more modern look.

I think it looks good from this angle. Haven't seen it from the side though. I don't agree that the lines don't follow, in fact from this angle I find it an improvement on the 1st gen front. I think a bike with a fairing will age quicker than a classic naked bike with round headlights. That's because bikers are a conservative lot in general. However a design with a mix of curves and angles would be more long lasting and has a better chance of becoming a classic. Angles give an aggressive look and curves give a solid, feminin feel which effects us male riders subcontiously. A mix is great. Don't be hard on the guy. He got a mix of both. A pity Suzuki didn't keep the curvy frame and sharpened up the front (an upside down fork would have been nice too). Thats what most of us 1st gen riders really wanted. Come on admit it guys!
