Busby Posted September 22, 2007 Report Share Posted September 22, 2007 I am really dissappointed with this to be honest. I love the new front end and the fairing design but what the hell have they done with the can?! Especially odd considering that the can design from the K6 and K7 still meets current emissions regulations so there was no need for such a dramatic change. Not sure about the rear either - from the side on shot it looks like the lights have been rounded off slightly but I guess I'll have to wait for the show and see one in person. As a two tine gixxer 6 owner who couldn't wait to see the k8 and line up a new purchase I think my money might be going elsewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee_ Posted September 22, 2007 Report Share Posted September 22, 2007 Can't say I'm a fan of that at all, seems like a half-arsed attempt at a facelift/new model. A lot of the 2008 new bikes aren't appealing at all. As you say that opinion may well change when I see them in the flesh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mort Posted September 22, 2007 Report Share Posted September 22, 2007 I bet it goes well though.... Its not bad looking. I preferred the short stubby pipe though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
