The front end is ugly. I think the rest of the bike is quite stunning.

It looks fuckin badass in race plastics though.



If I wanted to kill myself I'd buy this bike in an instant.

i dont think it's the bellypan that is large, it's just the front upper and lower are puny. I'd like to see a TLR superimposed over a pic of a CBR. I'd be shocked if there was less than 12" in difference from tip of noses. the RC51 always had a short nose too though.
