I can't wait for the suprize "R" version to come out a coupla months later with more power and much lighter. But of course more $$ as it will have Ohlins shocks and damper and different geometry!

It's kinda ugly, but it might run damn good. Hell it might even grow on me. Have to wait and see I guess.

Whether a bike is ugly or not is rather subjective.Japanese sports bikes are for the most part generic.If you don't like the strakes(whatever),grind it down and paint it along with the other unmatched parts.Five pages of fugly motorcycle,ya sound like a bunch of parrots.If 3 people had come out in the beginning of the press release and said how it gives them a woody,everyone else would be wiping the jizz off their screen and screaming why hasn't it been on the dealer floor yet.Give me a break,open up a can of STFU.

That's what the busa guys say....
It's ugly because that's what makes it fast... and it's fast because it's ugly
Since most of us don't commute every day at 200mph I'd prefer something not so ugly
and maybe give 1 or 2 mph....

Hey, Don't get me wrong....I Still Love my "DO-ALL" 00' 12r.
With Race Tech Suspention, Brake Tech Brakes, Muzzy 1270 with 112 rear wheel Torque and lots of other custom tweaks and goodies. KHI is going to produce one HELL OF A BIKE for me to concider parting with my 12.

MUZZYS is planning to have slip on and full systems available by release time. Look for a sidewinder also.

Will the full system be a single or dual exit?

BTW, the site Ninja12 listed links to some pics not seen here taken by one of its members:

The "look and feel" of the site gives somewhat of the heebie-jeebies though.
