NO! That simply CANNOT be a 'Zook! That is wunna the nicest looking bikes I've EVER seen! Holy SHIT! It's fuggin' GORGEOUS! If they make one in some kinda black scheme, the VTX Techno gets scratched, PERIOD. Based on looks alone, this thing's for me...
Did you grit your teeth and try to look like Clint Fuckin' Eastwood?
Or did you lisp it all hangfisted like a fuckin' flower?
no kidding.
the rear end reminds me of the back of the RF's, only modernized. no wonder your all over it.
It is quite a sharp looking bike but the muffler has to go, but the cans can stay

wow are those mirrors ugle as if they didnt look like antenna before... other than that and the trash can it is hot... just one more suzuki for everone and thier mom to feel the need to own. Still cant stand how many i see on the road..
DANG! I love that bike
I think it looks quite good... even the exhaust.
I don't know how you can say it's stealing the VFR tail section design.
The VFR is one of the only bikes that has the turn signals & brake light nicely integrated into the tail.
Mad props to Suzuki for recognizing that everyone was immediately chopping the fender and changing out the turn signals. There are only so many ways to nicely integrate everything so of course it is going to look somewhat similar to the VFR.

Ben,
from my piont of view(a person that does not look at a VFR every day unlike you), it very much reminds me a the VFR rear end. If you look at the tail lights and blinker and still say it bears no cues from the VFR then I will edit my post....

Hey asshat! Sounds like you prefer either the bikes that go fast for a little while, then break and never run the same again(YAMAHA) or the ones that just SUCK(KWAK)!Originally posted by TheIglu

1) It is not *exactly* the same
2) Let's see you design a 100% legal 100% integrated tail section that looks dramatically different... the rules are probably fairly restrictive and I bet most aftermarket tails are technically illegal. So you can't really blame Suzuki for it ending up looking familiar.
Ben
Why buy japanese when you can buy italian..
No it does look good though.. I'd get one..
This coming from a guy who rides a bike with an engine HALF mine's size? Pshhhh.....Originally posted by gixxer6

1) I didn't say *exactly* the same....EVER....
2) I am not a designer.
Maybe I am just letting my mind go, but doesn't the 1st pic have some slight resemblence to a 900ss Duc? Nothing in particular but a slight resemblence. I like the bike though...very nice. Let's see if the aftermarket can keep up with the more refined look of the newer crop of bikes. The days of just dumping the old D&D on these things are over. The triangular Yosh setup would probably be a nice compliment to that bike.

And that half sized motor will take me right around YOU bro! Come on up and watch me sling right by ya! Oh wait, I think you were there for one of the track days and I think I did fly right by you on what....a DIRTBIKE!?!? Damn Motard's!!!Originally posted by TheIglu

is it just me or are bikes these days lookin more & more like somethin from another planet? Not that i'm really complaining... it looks cool... cept for that exhaust expansion chamber below the can & the integration (or lack of integration) of the ram air intake into the front end.
the mirror signals.... meh.... undecided... at least it keeps turn signals off the fairings
