Wow, a Repsol forum and not one comment on the new one. Thought the new bike looks good.
Swing arm is way different and has the new 08 fairings on the side. Exhaust is back up under the
seat again too. Sounds like Nicky is diggin the new ride too.

Horrible looking. Hopefully Nicki will learn to drive this bike better than he drove the Repsol '07 Moto GP series.

Sounds like he likes the bike, and hes keepin up with Stoner. So thats always a good start.
The front wheel looks like it is stickin out pretty far.:confused2:

Thats true the bike doesnt look too good, but I am sure it will grow on us all considering we are all repsol fans.

Well, I hated the look of the '07 GP bike, so the fact that I think this one is FUGLY is no surprise to me.
They take "form follows function" and create the most hideous bikes on the planet...

Hmmmmmm, not sure. The front end is out there a bit and the split exhaust seems a bit odd. It's too bad they (Honda) couldn't get a designer from Yamaha and have them work with the Honda engine boys to develop a reliable AND good looking bike. You've got to admit, the R-1's are sweet azz looking.
Well, I guess in this case Nicky and Honda are more concerned with the top spot and if it takes an ugly bike to get there, so be it. As long as Nicky or Danny are standing at the top of the podium, hell ride a tricycle across the finish line.
:D:D
