Next R6?

Hi,

Just thinking about the R6's the 98 to 05 are very similar in shape & looks but the 06 is just mental & looks nothing like the previous bikes, now what the hell will the next R6 look like as it will be hard to beat a mental idea like that. The gsx-r however has kept a subtle look to it's 06 model yet it it's similar to the earlier models, so they won't have to think hard on the next model unlike Yamaha. So what the hell will the next R6 look like, there going to have to make it OTT?

The next model won't be for years (probably '09)...
How comes?
you can't just constantly keep redesigning a machine. after you redesign, you have to wait 4-5 years. that's just how it is.. a rule of thumb kinda.

so don't get your hopes up. they're gonna refine the current model until a couple years and then it's anybody's guess as to how the next will look like.

hopefully it'll be yet another drastic change.. for the good of course
Ah ok cool, thank you. Can't wait.

Yea, but the gixxer is god damned ugly. The new ones are far far too jagged, they look like some stone carver got trigger happy with his chisel. That, and the cyclops look really doesn't do it for me. I don't like full-fairing bikes that have only one headlight.
The K6 is one of the nicest bikes which actually looks decent. The 06 R6 infact looks like some stone carver got trigger happy with his chisel with some sharp edges. What ever you like i suppose.
like a giraff i hope or maybe a bad ass ligar. no but honestly it to earily to be thinkin of it.
The new R6 looks like a mantis. Who knows what will the next gen. R6 look like.
