Exhaust grew for emissions purposes. Still looks OK, better than undertails which are heavier and restrict flow.

Blame the economy for the lack of styling changes.

The white is by far the best.....I predict it will be the top seller, judging by how many people have been asking for white bikes lately.

I see the point about it looking like a Gixxer, but I have to admit I like it.

That white is too plain, if you ask me. Needs just a touch of contrast.

yeah the white is missing something definitely.

Glad they got rid of the red seats though, those things were hideous.

Looks a lot less plain than the black one.
