I'm partial to the 5th gen myself (with plenty of tweaking), but I'm admittedly a bit biased:




As for the 7th gen 1200 - like all other bikes previews I see in mags or on the net, I'll look at them but reserve judgment until I actually see it in person and have a chance to ride it.

You are all crazy!!! You have to be an idiot to build a single sided swing arm bike and then put the exhaust in front of the wheel!!!

F'n hilarious....and very true.

Definately.

Are we all going to argue about aesthetics and styling or shall we look deeper into what is a very interesing specimen. Variable cylinder tech with ability to run as a twin, triple, or V4? Semi auto double clutch gearbox with 3 ECU modes including automatic? Probably more ECU processing power than the space shuttle, no doubt the latest gen anti-lock, who knows traction control, ? Think about what these developments could do for the future of motorcycles and how his could be the biggest new thing in decades...

plusone......Now there's a real VFR, unlike the last 10-12 years where they've been given a standard-bike style riding position

What. You dont like bikes that you can ride for more than an hour without cramping up?

The comfort might be my favorite thing about VFRs. One of the few bikes not made only for 5'4" Japanese guys.
