Cool bike but looks painful is sit/ lay on. Whats up with the fiberglass wrap on the exhaust?
I guess that means the bike runs well enough and long enough to turn the pipes blue. Or is it the girl?

Not with those boots on - but maybe that's the point......

Maybe I am out of the mainstream, but the bike is ugly to me and the girl doesn't do much for me either. Well, her shape is nice but I ain't much on tattos!

Thanks DJ!
If those are the "new and improved" models....
You've reinforced what I already knew....
I'm very happy staying with my R1150R and my wife.

I see the hot blue bike (it's beautiful), but where's the gal? Was there another picture edited out for some reason?
What's this about:
"DJ [edited by doug - Please post pictures correctly, not a hard concept DJ] "
WTF ?
