Admittedly I am as biased as feck cos I have one but I much prefer the look of the 88 and 89 Slingshots.1888 wrote: Thu May 21, 2020 10:17 pm As for Suzuki sports bike only one i thought was sexy was the GSX WR model
Its not about revolutionary design, its simply about most beautiful bike built. Even colour schemes make a big difference surely?Sadlonelygit wrote: Wed Jun 03, 2020 8:20 am As an aside, people who say the new ducmvlavguzota is the most beautiful bike ever are so wrong.
They might have had more time spent with some fancy software program or the designer allowed free reign or.production techniques now allow xyz to happen instead of abc, but they are ALL just a pastiche of something that has already been designed.
