so what do you think?
http://racesport.nl/nieuwsbericht/15808/Su...+Superbike.html looks good, although imo all black bikes look good. good thing to have a 6th factory in the wsbk's, can't wait to see it on the track -------------------- You can't let praise or criticism get to you.

Looks like a Kawasaki front end with a Yamaha rear end.
Cool bike. The black still keeps you from seeing many details though. -------------------- Save Water

I like it, the only problem with BMW is going to be the price tag of one of these on the showroom floor. I'd guess $60k. It will make a Ducati 1098R look more affordable.
To bad BMW can't make a very powerful flat twin Hayden Fan, what do you mean? Flat black shows them sexy curves off nicely? Besides metallic colors, the darker the color, the better. -------------------- [size="1"] I'm old and I'm not happy. Everything today is improved and I don't like it. I hate it! In my day we didn't have hair dryers. If you wanted to blow dry your hair you stood outside during a hurricane. Your hair was dry but you had a sharp piece of wood driven clear through your skull and that's the way it was and you liked it! You loved it. Whoopee, I'm a human head-kabob. We didn't have Manoxidol and Hair Wings, in my day if your hair started falling out when you were 16 by 19 you were a bald freak. There was nothing you could do about it. Children would spit at you and nobody would mate with you so you couldn't pass on your disgusting baldness genes. You were a public menace, a crome dome by age 20 and that's the way it was and we liked it! We loved it. Hallelujiah look at me, I'm a bald freak oh happy day! Not like today, everybody feeling good about themselves. I hate it! In my day we didn't have these thin laytex condoms. So you could enjoy sexual pleasure. In my day there was only one kind of condom. You took a rabbit skin and wrapped around your privates and tied it off with a bungee cord and you couldn't feel nothing! And half the time you didn't even know your partner was there. And we used the same one over and over again! 'Cause we were ignorant morons! Just a bunch of hairless, head-kabobs standing around with rabbit skins on our dinks and that's the way we liked it! [/size]

Well that color from that angle makes some details hard to see, especially around the engine.

This looks ok, its great to see the European factories getting envolved.
-------------------- To consider Kevin Schwantz an equal rider to Rainey, Doohan and Lawson is to overrate him. His entertainment value, popularity and legendary status can be compared (and is arguably superior) to those he rode against, but he achieved significantly less on the track.

This is good to see. It put's even more interest into WSBK. This cannot be a bad thing for motorcycle racing in general. The more the merrier and the more European factories that get involved means for a greater series in general. Now, we just need some Aussies to ride it......

Its not that i am unaware of Ducati, its just that they are a minority and additional factories beyond the big 4 japanese is positive news. -------------------- To consider Kevin Schwantz an equal rider to Rainey, Doohan and Lawson is to overrate him.

I like that Aprilia, you get to see it's hart. I still prefer the looks of the 1st gen Millie. It didn't look like anything else except a aprilia 250.
