What are you.. the black font Hitler? Trying to eliminate all those that are not intune with your black-fontiness. The orange font will stay, unless i find another color deemable.... i can read fine.. get new eyes old man....

The Gladius, Er-6n, and FZ6R all look like shit. Actually overall, this year's redesigns as a whole have not impressed me. The zx-6r is questionable, the Gixxer 1K is not bad, the Ninja650 is ok, and the verdict on the R1 is still out... other than that, just blah....

The interesting thing is that here in Ohio, I could have gotten an Ninja250 for cheaper than a Hyosung250. Last year I could have walked OTD with a ninja for 3,888. This year I could have walked about 4,189. The hyosung was about 4,400 or 4,500..... Really sucks for you guys on the west coast!

No, I just think it's stupid and annoying. I'll be more than happy just to not read your posts. Carry on.

I could give two shits and fuck about that Fischer bike... been talk, talk, talk way to fucking long.

The new Kawi streetfighter version of the Ninja 650 is a cool lookin' rig... I'd totally rock one and a fun commuter...

Cool that Yamaha is reinventing the FZ6R... New beginner friendly bikes that don't look like shit are very cool...

Kinda odd that Buell is dumping the TT... It's so much like their other bikes... Hell, same with the S... I assume they are just trying to direct the focus off the air-cooled and onto the liquid cooled bikes... I did like that fucking TT too... My next mod plans for my Buell was to put the Uly/TT fender on it and rock the TT seat... That TT seat is ...
I wish they woulda kept the standard S. If was gonna buy a Lightning it would be the TT or the S. But I too feel they are working on down sizing the air-cooled fleet.

The SS can be turned into a TT really, really easily... Longer travel suspension aside...

I just like the look of the hand guards, single seat with the 12 engine. Other wise the CityX would be fine.
