I love my V-Strom.

But I have to concede that its not the most beautiful bike in the world.
Some would say that its ugly. Really ugly.

Some bike just ooze sex, some look fast standing still (I like to think that the V-Strom looks all tough and adventure'ish). It looks better the dirtier and more loaded up it is (kind of like a camel - not that you can ever call a camel sexy - can you?)

So - Whats the ugliest production bike for sale in NZ?

The Kawasaki Versys has a face only a mother could love.

But by god I love that bike! I love it so much that I can even look past it's looks, which is a miracle for me :yes:

Beauty's really in the eye of looker, innit?

I've always had a soft spot for the V stroms...find them quite cool actually and they always attract my eye everytime I come across one.

However, I've always found the Hayabusa horrid...great machine to be sure, but lookswise: eeewww! No disrespect to any Busas owner of course...

Gotta be the Multistrada IMO - bought a Versys as it was slightly better looking than the Vstrom (& was less vibey!)

There seems to be alot of new bikes that look like they took a tumble outta the ugly tree and broke all the branches on the way down! Definately the Multistrada, new ZX10R, pretty much any Hyosung, GSXR1000K7 etc... But I remember when the GSXR1000K5 first came out, I thought WTF, its horrid, but now it looks pretty darn cool. So maybe sometimes we're just not quite ready for the way a bike looks because its so different. And then it grows on us. Hell, even the new Fireblade's starting to look pretty nice to me!

agreed, someone round here previously stated it looked like it fell out of a half melted jello mold

i concur

yeah, it's a bit of a mess, looks like the top of one bike was glued to the bottom half of another



as far as the GS1200SS goes, the front fairing is a bit wrong; way too big and rounded but I guess that's part of the retro flavour, the rest of it I don't mind

Do you reckon you'd "give it one", Tank? :D

Ugly bike? Suzuki TL1000R. If you've ever read the Fred Gassit cartoon "Fred's Ugly Motorbike", I reckon you can see that it's referring to the R model

No, but if she engages my attention when she talks, and hides a kindred spirit beneath her exterior, then yes, that does make her better looking.

(You and I obviously have slightly different approaches toward females.)

There are no 'ugly' bikes. Some are just better looking than others.
