It seems more like the designer(s) forgot to think about that stuff when they were designing it and were like "Fuck it,we'll just put two HUGE intake-looking things on each side."

It looks like fatburg was allowed to design the sides of the bike and he decided they needed grills.

Didn't call you a squid. Just said that because it doesn't look like every other replica racer bike out there, all the squids won't be flocking toward it.

![]() It's all a personal preferance. You buy what you like. I like a functional motorcycle. The 1125R is functional straight out of the box. Nothing needed to add (except an exhaust just cause it's too quiet) It's got all the power I need, it's comfortable, it catches people's eye, and it's flat fun to ride. That's all I want, so I bought it. You have dreams of being Rossi, so you got a new R6. |

Yes, yes it worse than my blinkers, the rear fender and the huge hole in my front fairing to let air come screaming in. You ever seen a GP bike? And I may have a huge hole in my upper, but your upper itself is HUUUGE.

Nothing against you, Cutty. I just think the bike is ugly as fuck. And you think mine is whack. So we're even.

And again, it's huge for a reason. It's extremely quiet and next to no wind was hitting me. It was designed that way to flow the air around you.
