I'm sure you're familiar with this one by now, but what about THE NEW 2005:

Just me or ugly as I think it is? Maybe it'll grow on me...

*EDIT - I'm referring specifically to the color scheme pictured. Sorry for the lack of clarity on my part.

Of course I know it's a beauftiful bike, after all I wake up to 'er every morning. *wink*

I really like it. The only thing on the Gixxers I'm not sure about is the end can on the 1000. Other than that they've resisted the urge to fillow the crowd and put twin headlights on the bike and underseat exhausts like everyone else!

Bearable, but the black and yellow, with no blue looks a lot nicer.

I think it's gorgeous and I LOVE the colours, but I would agree with what others have said, I kind of prefer it without the Blue!

I WANT ONE!!!! Twisted Evil

I can only agree. I think it's stunning and just confirms for me that my first real bike will be a GSXR of some flavour Thumbs Up (Yes I know, no experience, choice based on looks alone = bad Thumbs Down But I just love it Very Happy)

The standard schemes are awful, whereas the Repsol scheme is, well, sex with two wheels attached.

This Gixxer looks like the Camel Honda MotoGP bike, I'm thinking that it would get you very admiring/jealous looks. Thumbs Up Thumbs Up

No worries. The Gixxer's a fantastic bike in looks as well as performance. Can't see where you could go wrong unless you're much shorter than 5'10". Thumbs Up
