Ugliest Sport Bike? Have you seen this?

Question

2008 Kawasaki ZX-10R.

Have any of you seen this contraption in person? This bike is attrocious!

They tried to copy the old R1 front end and messed it up. Then they have this big azz ugly plastic tipped exhaust can, and a crappy looking rear fender. You can't really tell how ugly it is looking at online pics. You have to see it in person. The 2006 model was awesome.

The 2008 Honda CBR is ugly as well in my opinion. The fairings just look incomplete. I hear it's a beast but really every bike is a beast depending on who you ask.

Answer 1

08 blade is ugly.

The Morbidelli V8 was gross.

The YZF 750 from 1993 was gross, for one reason............. it did not have an " R " in it name.

The NR750 " oval dream " was ugly as it was too wide.

The list goes on for ever .............

Answer 2

I'm with Kyle on this one,though not with the Katana.I prefer the 04 model but.

Answer 3

ill for sure agree with you for the kawi but i think the 2008 cbrs look way better than some of the bikes out on the market...they perform greatt 2!

Answer 4

I think the new fireblades are s**y, I agree that the zx-10 is ugly, I seen one and thought it was the new 250...

Answer 5

HOW CAN YOU SAY THAT ISN'T CUTE??? I would die for a bike that looked like that!

***** END EDIT :) *****

IMO

o before i start thank you for saying sport bike instead of CRATCH RACKET

I love the look of the tail on the 'o8 ZX10R. I don't think they tried to copy the R1's nose. The huge intake on the front is s**y. I agree with you about the exhaust though BLAH! Put a micron or M4 on there.

The 'o8 CBR IMO is ugly from every single angle, besides looking at it face to face. It looks like it got hit in the face with a shovel from the side, and the exhaust is the size of my desktop computer.

I would buy a KTM RC8 1190 if I was in the market for a new liter bike anyways. By far the most beautiful bike I have ever seen.

I'm the opposite, I think every Cruiser looks the same, despite some distinct few.

EDIT: Katanas are junk...air cooled, almost 500 pounds, looks like a dinosaur, ugly one peice seat, carbuerated EW

Answer 6

It looks about the same as almost every sport bike in the past 5 years...

Answer 7

still looks better than the buell 1125r

the new CBR i really like actually, except for the g*y stock muffler.  the bodywork looks like it went on a major diet

Answer 8

yes ugly, but if you paint the big 4 the same colour they all look the same.gimme a katana anytime.......i'd have 1 if you were giving them away

Answer 9

Not nearly as ugly as the butt-end of a Hayabusa!

I rather like the ZX-10 personally.  It's Yamaha's styling I'm not too fond of this time around.  Sharp lines don't work for me, and if it's all blocky and angular it better be exotic, like the RC8 or Bimota DB7.

Answer 10

It's got a long way to go before it out-uglys the Morbidelli
