Oooooo the orange one looks sweet
Looks OK!
But it doesn’t really set my soul on fire!
I doesn’t look different enough like the old Buells.
Nothing sets it apart from any other bike.
That’s a nice colour onesies!

Looks pretty sweet in person, too many people in the way to get good pics. The black one is actually the carbon one, but I liked the orange one. It was also pretty cool that Erik was standing around talking to people. He is in the background of the orange one.
The man himself
In defense of the 1190rs looking very similar to many other supersportbikes, id think it would be hard to stray much in the overall design of a bike intended solely for being as fast as possible in every way. They've all got 2 wheels, have to be as light and sleek as possible.
1125 based chassis, EBR Racing...that in itself sets it apart from other bikes, oh wait, it's an American sportbike, hmmmm:pI doesn’t look different enough like the old Buells.

you may wanna check out the vids from the Craftsman interviews with EBR...do you know of any other sportbike having air scoops for the front brake caliper to it cool, or the braking system design of the xb's and 1125's, under slung exhaust, low center of weight distribution, shall I go on...:p:p:p
I love the bike, but I still can't get past that exhaust. Maybe it will grow on me!
I agree with netty2424, the exhaust is probably my least favorite part aesthetically. Still like the bike, though.
The exhaust is held on with 2 clamps, it could be gone in 60 seconds... It was put on to meet emissions in every country it was sold in.
