Yup I rode it at Bike Week this year. I actually really liked it; surprisingly comfy (even moreso than the '08 ZX6R, which I also rode). But I'm not wild about the way it looks. Right now, I hate to say it, but for '08, Zuk is really the best looking lineup out there, followed closely by Yammy. But yeah I think '09 means a redesign for Yamaha.

If I thought my bike would make it till March without major headaches, I'd hold out, have Chris get an '09 R1 and then I'd inherit HIS. But I don't think I'll be holding out that long.
