| Re: 2009 R1 Yep, also thought so at first. However, it looks a LOT better in the video - check out the other thread on this over here and see the last video posted: 09 YZF-R1 |

| Re: 2009 R1 I was going to say the same thing about the headlamps... they don't "flow" IMO.

| Re: 2009 R1 The 08 CBR looked like a bug. The R1 looks like some strange little transformer as you say.
The CBR grew on me, hopefully the R1 will.... But whats with these silly exhausts these days?!

| Re: 2009 R1 I like the look of new R1 (maybe not the exhaust), and my wife loves it. Probably that will be her new bike next year. |
