that CBR250 looks pretty crap and will be slower than the older CBR250RR MC22. Paul at TYGA has just informed me they have orderd one and will be doing a whole host of parts for it as it is pig ugly in the flesh.

Seconded! Most if not all new bikes just dont do anything for me at all, just another nameless plastic rocket?? I prefer the NC23 to the 29 etc - would LOVE an MC22 tho just for the 19'000 redline abuse factor.... :grin:

A shame so many have been purloined by greyhaired saddos building them into Hailwood rep's.... :(

Im sure Tyga will make it look better, especially if they can get the stance right with the plastics, but I think I would just go for the better looking Kawasaki if buying one of those 250's.

Thats something a friend and myself commented on at our local bike meet, take the badge of most new bikes paint all of them the same colour and you would be hard pressed to tell one from the other. There seems to be an identidy crisis a bit like how most new cars tend to look like one another from different manufactures, apparently the reason its like that with cars is that most designers went to the same design school, dont know about bikes.


Ohh and here is the video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yqc-FUbANvA "elegent muffler" ???

Looks like a small VFR1200?? Horrible plastic whirry thing?? Gak! Only redlines at 12k too... :roll:

The new one is the difficult but ultimatly crap "second album", all over-processed & pouffy.... ;)

That's the most questionable use of 'ish' I've seen!
