Just came back from the dealer/autozone/ yadda yadda... What the hell is with the stunter tank on the ZX6R? BARF! The rest of it isn't too bad, but the tank is a deal breaker.

The shape of the tank is supposed to give you better feedback and and to help with your lean so you can better grip the tank.

Yeah I say throw away class leading engine and newly designed forks because the headlights are queer and the tank has a indention...
