    Thanks.
    Pic #1 sure looks like the motor is really hanging out kinda like the BMW heads did. Looks funky from the front.
    Just my opinion, but the B looks better with the fairing hiding some of that.

    Change does sometimes take a while to get used to.

    The first thing I noticed also was how the motor sticks out when looking from the front... Sitting on the bike and looking down all one can see is this huge hunk of a flat six motor protruding from the bottom of the bike...As willtill has said, this change may take some time getting used to ....Otherwise nice bike in many regards...JMHO

    I'm with you there Bill, I saw a side by side the other day, it's like a ST1300 on roids...

    Still out on the looks from the front.
