Is it just me or is the V-Strom 1000 hideous? And I own a Versys 650!

wheres the trailles?
So where is the replacement for the drz 400, there is nothing you can buy that compares apart from an oll drz 400 , i know honda released the crf250l but its underpowered with only 23 bhp, you think that a 500cc traille would be a hit with customers instead of big overwieght adventure style bikes.

A mixture of...........

What's wrong with plastic btw?
It's light, easy to make, and weather proof.
Only a 1930s Harley crank would object.

Glad to see the continuing trend of reducing weight, but would be much better to improve fuel consumption rather than performance. Designers and decision-makers obviously buy their fuel on their expense accounts and don't have to pay for it themselves.
