Me too. I'm proud to ride a V-2 which proves I am non-conformist.

I think you already proved that with your thought pattern.

Uh, actually dude, bein' how the World-At-Large fears and despises Motorcyclists in-general - the very act of riding makes one a "nonconformist". No matter his/her brand or style of bike.

Except for them cruiser riders - they're all just a buncha poser-wannabes.........

(Star Raider Designer) "Norman Kerechuck studied the history of customs…the owners want to be noticed, and in focus groups they used buzzwords like “tough,” “outlaw,” “freedom,” etc. He wanted the bike to look like an aircraft taking off, a “fist in the wind” look..."

Oh. So THAT'S what they wanted.

Would that be a bare-knuckled fist, a leather-gloved fist, a chrome-plated-armoured fist, or an iron-fist in a velvet glove?

I'm guessing a fist breaking wind.

Exceptional! Not a copy of anything. Anyone has the right to make a better motorcycle. Yamaha, my hat is off to you. Can't wait to ride one. At this point I beleive that I will be owning one, as I am in the market.

Also, I edited this post and hope noone read the original, as I do not wish to rag on any perticular brand. They are all good, as long as they are upright!

As long as your chins in the wind and your knees in the breeze
it's all good to ride....
I thought it was "Rugged individualist" ??
cheers, ride safe and wear a helmet.
