I think it looks pretty damn good, honestly I like what they did with the front more than the R1, they hid the headlights better, everything else looks pretty solid.

Agreed! I honestly am not a big fan of the latest R1 styling. It looks like the R6 took what I didn't like, and fixed it. I do wish for two more minor changes:
1) Find a way to get the headlights up into the fairing where the running lights are.
2) Get back to the dual low/highbeams

I like the look of the previous years also but I certainly don't think the 2017 R6 bike doesn't have an aggressive look to it.I prefer the previous years' aggressive look
I hear ya on the small seat but it does look better. My 06 R1 has a pretty good size back seat and my girlfriend, whom is pretty small (5' and not fat) hates riding on it, not because of the seat but the back foot pegs are so high it makes for an uncomfortable seating position. My cowling only gets replaced with the seat about 3 times a year.I don't like riding anyone on the R1 anyway, that's what my 1986 Harley FXRD touring bike is for.The new R6 styling looks really good. I want it and I'm not even in the market for a new bike. I feel sorry for all of the fat ass girls though. Back in the days, supersports and superbikes rear seats were wide enough to accommodate the biggest ass imaginable with the only limitation being how much the suspension can handle. With these new rear seats getting smaller and smaller the dream of riding with a biker for these fat ass girls are going astray. I'm glad I'm not in the market of picking up women anymore or this would have been a concern.
I think it's a smart idea also. To only thing I don't get is the electronics package, don't think you need it on a 600cc bike.I think MommaYamaha knew the market was smaller, but went ahead with the R6 anyways to dominate it after the end of the CBR...
I'm sure Toce will come out with a 4 can exhaust that will look killer....................NOT,:lol:lol:lol. Anyway, just about everyone changes the exhaust so it's not a big deal to me.My only gripe about it is the exhaust. Hopefully Taylormade comes out with something kickass for it.
