    agreed...

    check out the new Suzuki GSX-S750 and the 1000, both with old generation GSXR engines tuned for the street, the 1000 has ABS and stopping power supplied by Brembo, the 750's in Europe already with ABS which we won't get here stateside.

    FZ-09 for 2015 look the same, however retuned and suspension upgrades over the 2014 models...just over $8100.

    Kawasaki still pushing the Z1000 as the only "streetfighter" option and looks the same, very fugly

    Doesn't live up to the hype imho. I was all into this bike before the revealing. Its just another dick measuring exercise. It's cool though.

    The Japanese need to lay off this angry robot insect thing they've got going on and look at making truly sexy bikes again. Everything has gotten so angular and outrageous but it still doesn't look better than an RC-30 or even things the Italians were putting out ten years ago. Maybe I'm just getting old but the newer Japanese bikes rarely do anything for me these days.
