Pics don't do a bike justice more often than not. I wouldn't mind seeing one in person.

I wasn't saying anything about the merit of riding it... I was just commenting on how Kawi will take a gorgeous idea and fuck it up with little additions.

last good looking bike from Kawi was the ZX6R 636... IMO

the DRZ is fucking ugly as sin... but it's an off road bike... not meant to be sleek and sexy like a sport bike.

While I like the gen 2 636, I love next gen that Sixx has. If I had 5 grand, that is the bike that I would drop it on.

My 'sniff' 2005 636, was special. She is gone but not forgotten. The 26K I put on her was hard and fast but she was infallible and I have had 10 middleweights from each brand to compare it to.

This ten should be special if the patents all work as advertised. Maybe the first supersport liter bike I will own.
