the big-twin cruiser-ish thing with the bikini fairing and square tailsection made me want to add some more dents to my tank from beating the designer to death with it, and the rest just kind of bored me...

sidenote: can someone design a sportbike with the thought in mind that it'll probably have a license plate on it, most of the time, and come up with something more attractive than the clunky, enourmous, black plastic thing?

So many sportbikes but no sport-tourer. Or is that where the can-o-tuna is supposed to fit ? But we DO have that entire line-up of Boulevard croozers. Oh boy.

I'm not sure what everyone is griping about?

They looked pretty good to me.

As for the posts wishing for a Sports Tourer, the Busa has always filled that role pretty well, then there are the SV's.

In fact, some soft luggage will make a sports tourer out'a what ever sports bike you ride.

As for the Cruisers (Snoozers?) I didn't take the time to even look at them. Never fear, I'm sure someone will give us a report.

No sport-tourer?You must be nuts,what about the bandit!!oh wait,it wasn't pictured and neither was the GSR600.The cast wheel only Vstrom with self destructing plastic-o-plenty for an adventure bike,my marketing research says Suzuki gets x-ed off for this years purchase.
