Pit,
I agree the left/right and rear sides look great and the front side looks a bit weird. But there's a side you are forgetting: the top side. When you are sitting in the saddle, look down at the tank and the way it curves around the forks. Gorgeous ! And that is the side you will see all the time you are riding it.

4 gorgeous sides out of 5 is good enough for me.

Paul
PS If you still don't like the front don't worry, there are so many people doing accessories for the MS it's only a matter of time before someone does a new nose for it.

Yes Paul,
I see you`re very diplomatic, I wish I could it be too.

Last week I want to do my first test ride on a MS, but we have snow without an end here in germany and so it didn`t happened.
At the moment I try to find a new termin with my dealer and after some testkilometers I hope to say the same like you.

Peter
Paul's right about the view from the seat (as hard as it might be). It's
great. But I disagree about the view from the front. It's differant, thats
all, not like some cute cat eyes Stubborn , and that turns some poeple
off. But thats more cool Cool .

I looked at a lot of bikes before I bought mine. Looks was one of the
reasons, but style wise, it fits what I wanna do with a bike. Ride it alot.
My last bike was a sporty cruser. you could ride all day but I needed
more performance. To me the bike is a sporty standard, Itallian style,
and just a good all-around motorcycle. Very Happy
Joe
