    Dave K DaveK über alles!

    Not even that. Took the red outline off of Eneos, added some camo that might have been cool 10 years ago and enlarged the claws to keep monster from totally bailing to Ducati.

    Whats up with the rear tire hugger and those massive slots? - not sure I've seen that before.

    From what I read this will be the way the bike looks as long as monster is the title sponsor. And yes it's boring as hell

    At least it has a decent tail section without a bunch of stupid fins coming off it.

    Nothing more than show pieces. The fins will be back. I find it disconcerting Yam is still using the basic shape of bodywork on the M1 as when they started the 4 stroke Era while HRC, Duc, and Aprilia are completely different. Hopefully they turn it around but I thinks not.

    How it looks is irrelevant. It better have more ponies.

    I wonder if those front disc covers will become a fad with street riders.

    It's just a livery unveil, not the new bike or aero. The new bodywork doesn't show up until a week or two before the season opener so others don't have time to copy new developments.

    A more bold and exciting graphic layout than the 2023 Suzuki.

    I don't think that's a problem for Yamaha like it is for Ducati

    Trainwreck I could give a heck

    The front wing looks VERY similar to the Suzuki shape. lol I wonder if Yamaha picked up any of their staff/engineers. The GSX-RR was the only other inline 4 correct? That thing seemed to have some poke AND could turn.
