Nice.

Everyone makes dumb complaints about how heavy that bike is, when they couldn't even take a Ninkja 250 to its limits.

The headlights might be silly, but IMO the sound makes it the best choice.

I'm not a fan of yamahas styling, always thought they were really bleh. The engine however is pretty freakin cool in design.

It's too fast and heavy, people need to learn to ride pocket bikes first.

You seem like the only neutral here. It's either love it or hate it.

I don't hate it. I just think it's ugly.
