You should see the front end. :wtf1:

Is it just me or is all the litres getting uglier.

The rear seat cowl is almost as high as the windscreen. They seem to be operating on a hit and miss theme. Last time they tried the "almost under seat exhaust", now they have abandoned that idea and have copied the Gixxer. Sorry, but I'm still not a fan!

Maybe the yellow is not so bad, would need to see it in person. I like the blue one tho, it matches my new helmet .....

Geee...sus...

Apart from the exhaust and blinker/mirrors the '08 ZX10 looks unreal in my opinion.

Definately need a huge bum to fill that seat :)

:stupid: Big improvement on the previous model, but I still like the 03-04 10R the best for looks.

I'm with you Kellz, I wish they went for the "gills" model

Hmmm maybe it will "grow" on you and look better in person.

These things tend to take time for me... the idea bakes in my brain then i'm inlove with a new design!

Who cares what it looks like. I think you are all missing the important point. Whats it like to ride, how much does it scare the crap out of you?

I'd have one if I had the cash to spare and could ride it to 75% of its potential, no matter how ugly it looked

Kawasaki's are always ugly - we just have to accept that :p

Im yet to find a bike to scare me.

I reckon its dumped the whole look/style thing and gone for performance. Hopefully it holds up in that area.

04/05 is still a good looker i am keep my black beauty for a while yet

I think that they may hold their value better than o6 07 models - UGLY!!!!!!

Would like to see some of those angles in the black colour - I think its not bad - at least its different. R6/R1 still basically have the same look and the GIXXER is getting a but tired - give me the superman K1/K2 any day - that bike was a lot of fun

Thats my 2 cents worth.
