The "Johny 5" School of Headlight Design is apparently alive and well in Berlin...

Honestly, the racebike will probably look great. You lose the headlights and the gigantic catalytic converter, and you'll probably have a decent-looking rig. The top of the tank is still goofy, but it's not too bad overall. I do like the side fairings, and the tail isn't too bad.
It better be fast as hell if it's gonna look that wierd.

as someone who idly considered plunking money down on one i gotta say that im rather dissapointed. I guess they thought asymetrical headlights would make this bike more acceptable to their current fanbase but damn is that fail

When you design a bike that looks Japanese, you do what you have to to make it unique.

 @ SwanBMW really likes weird-ass headlights... i can't find pics now for the life of me, but a couple years back they experimented with a 1200C-based bagger that looked like a jumping spider
