you're right nbot, the new exhaust is very strange. although it doesn't look too bad here.

on the new r6 the exhaust looks like total crap. boo to the industrial design team on that one. i think the new gixxers are following the same route.

Jason,
I just got a look at the new R6 exhaust recently and it sure is strange looking. I guess they decided to design it for the track (AMA Supersport, Superstock). More and more the Big-4 from Japan are designing their "R" and "RR" sportbikes for the track.
