well I hope they're much better than the XB's version... they're HORRIBLE lights... though I've heard they've fixed that...

I don't mind the projector style... the Daytona's look good... but FUCKING A... Kawi and Yamaha need LOTS of work. Suzi isn't bad... though I still think the bike would look fuck'n tits with just the two bulbs and paint over that projector in the middle.

Lol, the Yamaha and Honda lights are very similar, just different angle. You didnt seem to say anything about the Honda

Then wouldnt it just look like all the other 600's with split lights? I still like the Suzi bc its different.

I know everyone and their mother loves the Honda, but I don't. From a front view it looks like it's buck-toothed. The 05-06 were much better-looking.

I dont mind the Honda headlights. They look mostly normal. But I agree that the 05's were better looking. Always liked them.

The lights on the XB, while projectors, fucking SUCK. I can't see shit at night. Buell did recall them...which I had done. That made them marginally better.

Honestly, before the recall, riding at night at 35 mph was down right DANGEROUS.

But I knew the lights sucked before I bought it. I did my research. And I don't ride at night very often.

what's your point

I like the honda and Yamaha lights... I was talking about Yamaha's projector style... on the R1... not the R6... the R6 is a good looking bike IMO... but the CBR looks the best... the colors for 09 just suck donkey balls.

I like the GSXR... but think it'd look better with just two headlights and paint where the center projector light is... MUCH BETTER IMO.

The projectors lights on the gixxer are good. Very bright.

I always liked the GSXR. The lights look fine to me. The cyclops look never bothered me.

The only issue with them is that the lights bounce with the suspension. The slightest bump in the road you can see the light bounce on the road ahead of you. I was riding behind a buddy in a cage and he said my lights(on low beans of course) was bouncing constantly.

stacked headlights dont seem to be too popular either, 999/749 anyone?

I like the side view...well once the exhaust and rear fender are taken care of with aftermarket pieces.

I don't really like the front view as much.

Overall though I like it...should be a screamer too.
