Almost.

There's something about the way the fairing merges with the rad cover that offense me.

Have they forgotten to secure the top of the fairing / nose, looks like a sad ass nodding dog.

POssibly because the back end is up on a paddock stand ?

Not in all the shots, sure that does make it look worse than it is, but even on the flat it looks wrong / unfinished / hurriedly lashed up for a photo shoot they forgot about

Seems to mix era's to me. The XSR is sort of 80s throw back styling but that nose cone is more 60s/70s I think. Just doesn't gel at all.

I liked the last gen XSR, the current one just looks awkward.

Prefer the black over blue but something still looks wrong with them....

[Couchy]

So where are all the cafes these days ?

[Yorick]

The fairing looks cool from the side. But the round light just looks wrong.

Reminds me of a 70s bike, but can't remember which one.

[Mr Moofo]

The back end is hopeless

What is it with the gopping headlight style? Everyone seems to be 2 pumps and a squirt about it, as evidenced by the reaction to the hideous MV Velour (or whatever it's called), but they look shite. Just like the original Multistrada still looks shite.
