Well, i have my own thoughts on this one.... None of them are good thoughts, mostly involving fire and a large hammer !
But hey, that's not why they're posted, they're posted for us to see what's going on in the world of bikes

Not sure about the screen, I'm sure Yozza will have something to say about it being so low

It's got a classic 70s / 80s endurance racer look, clearly quite a lot borrowed from the WEC Kawasakis of that era.
Aside from the screen, I rather like it. Not least because I turned my old CB250 into something not too visually dissimilar in 1977

It has has a whiff of a TRX about it with that seat unit. I don't like the tail unit or the stupid fairing. So it'd be a no from me, which is a shame as the rest of the bike looks nice.

Well at least they've got shut of the tacky Union Jack logos theyr'e usually covered in...
675R owner here so I like to see what people do with the Street Triple, & there's nothing on that bike that makes me think about modifying mine.
'it's got a classic 70s / 80s endurance racer look, clearly quite a lot borrowed from the WEC Kawasakis of that era.'
I like the old Suzuki & Kawasaki endurance bikes you saw at Le Mans & the Bol,but this one reminds me more of something borrowed from a Royal Enfield build...

I'm in the minority then because apart from the screen I like it. It is classic endurance racer styling, think P&M Kawasaki's or NCR Ducatis. But I'm old and it's of my era

I bet some idiot dropped a spanner on the screen the night before the photo shoot and they 'did the best they could' with what was left. Certainly looks that way.

I like it apart from the screen and the belly pan is too big

If you put Yamaha on the tank, most people would believe you!

The screen lookes like they cropped the photo and made an arse of it.
Instead they just made an arse of the screen.
