Some real pigs in this listing but to say "...and almost everything that ...Triumph has designed in the past five years! ... do have to be singled out as they have turned their back on decades of beautiful design and consistently turned out cockroachcycles that replace flow and balance with a look that can only be compared to riding through a tractor parts warehouse with an electromagnet. Completely despicable! Shame on you, ...Triumph!"

Hal Licino who compiled the list needs new eyes :mad: IMHO Triumph has produced some wonderful machines (maybe not all the time but mostly they get it right).

He is right - they are fooking ugly (why I like them).

Sorry, I've tried to like them, even riding them didn't help. I just don't think they're at all pretty :(

This would be runner-up, but I actually love this bike and would probably buy one if given the chance!

The basic design frame, forks, swingarm etc is sexy as hell!! its the stupid headlights and massive exhaust that make it ugly.

Have to agree on the Triumph thing re the last 5 years , seems every Bonneville or Bonny offshoot put out is designed deliberately to be as non-offensive as possible to suit the demograph they're aiming I guess. They've actually got to the stage where they're so non-offensive looking they're downright ugly or "offensive' - yuk.

Must say I like the look of the 'Busa in the first thread though ...

[tigertim20]

Hayabusa, cos it looks like a fat chick in a thong bikini.

and the ducati Paso. c'mon duc, you can do better!!!

[Grumpy]

This really is awful and I like the look of cruisers.

I love my mighty GN!

[vifferman]

...and the ducati Paso. c'mon duc, you can do better!!!
There was a reason for that: the engine was too noisy, Ducati wasn't financially healthy enough to bring out a completely new bike, so they just covered the engine with a fully-enclosed fairing to meet the Euro noise regs of the time. But yes, I agree it's urglee.
Off the top of my head, I think the Honda CX500 was a damned urglee beast.

[BMWST?]

i dont know why,but the B kings really intruige me.I dont normally even look at suzukis but the b king......weird

Is that bimota rear wheel steer? Oh wait, that's the front.

Never mind.

There was a reason for that,was called Cagiva,certainly not the last fuck up they made.

They would be the only people stupid enough to put 10000 Pantah engines into some godawful thing i cant bring myself to say,then again nobody bought them so no doubt rusting away god knows where.

Multistrada.

How can they get their other bikes so good, yet beat this one to death with their ugly stick every time???? :oi-grr:

That's why I love my K1: Soo ugly that she is cool.

Here's another style disaster;
That poor designer couldn't get work after that bike.....wonder why

[piston broke]

whats with all the fairing bits hanging off the gas tanks :sick:

i really can't see the point of them,can they not even draw up a nice looking tank?

[racefactory]

Honestly guys it's pretty obvious... we see them everyday and it does not make them any more tolerable, it can only be the one and only..............

GN250

It's fucking diabolical honestly. The way the rider sits on it, everything- just the worst thing imaginable.

[racefactory]

This is also very high up on the list... just 1980's technology wrapped in disgusting cheap styling, honestly I'm ashamed of the japs for this one. thought it was something out of China or Korea when i saw it.

The head looks like it's from a Japanese cartoon.A mate's got one of these, he reckons it's great because the design is such that you can sit a couple pies on the cylinder head, they don't fall off, and they ready eat when you get to where you going :niceone:
