I think I may be sick. Title: Re: BMW S1000RR streetfighter......Yuch Post by: orangelion03 on May 19, 2011, 12:59:49 PM So many other ways this could have gone. :'(
Title: Re: BMW S1000RR streetfighter......Yuch Post by: pennyrobber on May 19, 2011, 01:12:22 PM Did you expect any different from BMW. Their designs have always been aesthetically challenged.
Title: Re: BMW S1000RR streetfighter......Yuch Post by: krolik on May 19, 2011, 01:18:45 PM This is not from BMW, just one guy's take on it. I kind of like it. But that's just me. :-*
Title: Re: BMW S1000RR streetfighter......Yuch Post by: m1moto on May 19, 2011, 01:44:11 PM It had some possibilities, dig the old-school paint, the seat and rear mudguard is just plain ugly. Not sure what to call it but it's not a street fighter.
Title: Re: BMW S1000RR streetfighter......Yuch Post by: jvax on May 19, 2011, 02:42:17 PM good god! it's definitely not a streetfighter. kinda sad for that S1000RR. Title: Re: BMW S1000RR streetfighter......Yuch Post by: fastwin on May 19, 2011, 02:43:53 PM That made me spit up a little. [puke]

But that's just me. :-* I kind of like it too, but there's no accounting for taste :) Title: Re: BMW S1000RR streetfighter......Yuch Post by: numbskull on May 19, 2011, 02:47:27 PM [puke] What is going on with the headlights? WTF?
Title: Re: BMW S1000RR streetfighter......Yuch Post by: Spidey on May 19, 2011, 02:47:57 PM I don't care enough about the S1000RR to think they've butchered it by making it into that thing. I just don't.
But the part I like about it is that it's so weird looking and so damn ugly, it'd be worth riding around. If only to grin like an idiot as people gawk at you in horror. It's like havin' a bright pink bike. It's fun to rock out on something that absurd.

A Harley pucked on the BMW. :( Title: Re: BMW S1000RR streetfighter......Yuch Post by: TAftonomos on May 19, 2011, 06:48:45 PM (http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y54/TheoAftonomos/Funny/failure.jpg)
Title: Re: BMW S1000RR streetfighter......Yuch Post by: The Bacon Junkie on May 19, 2011, 08:43:47 PM I just made a little mess in my pants.....

That puts a nasty taste in yer mouth. Somewaht comparable to that Yamaha with Downs Syndrome. Title: Re: BMW S1000RR streetfighter......Yuch Post by: justinrhenry on May 20, 2011, 03:53:31 AM get rid of the seat tassles and i think it looks pretty cool. feel free to throw up on me a little bit. [drink]
Title: Re: BMW S1000RR streetfighter......Yuch Post by: darkduke on May 20, 2011, 05:50:14 AM he's got riding at night covered...... and that is the only posotive thing I can say...
Title: Re: BMW S1000RR streetfighter......Yuch Post by: NorDog on May 20, 2011, 08:20:57 AM Okay some say that beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but this bike proves that (_!_) ugly is there for all to see.
Title: Re: BMW S1000RR streetfighter......Yuch Post by: strat10 on May 20, 2011, 08:51:12 AM luckily that thing is a screamer. Hopefully wont be sitting still to often.

(http://www.motorcyclenews.com/upload/279414/images/bmw-1.JPG) [puke] Just look at that seat, those lights, EVERYTHING.... [bang] Title: Re: BMW S1000RR streetfighter......Yuch Post by: duccarlos on May 20, 2011, 09:01:29 AM Okay some say that beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but this bike proves that (_!_) ugly is there for all to see. I think the quote goes: Beauty is only skin deep, but ugly goes clear to the bone. That bike hit every limb of the ugly tree as it came down. I thought that they could not make that bike any uglier. I was way wrong. Title: Re: BMW S1000RR streetfighter......Yuch Post by: NorDog on May 20, 2011, 09:30:04 AM I think the quote goes: Beauty is only skin deep, but ugly goes clear to the bone. That is a quote, and that is the way it goes, but the two statements (mine and the one you cite here) are making different points. Title: Re: BMW S1000RR streetfighter......Yuch Post by: sbrguy on May 20, 2011, 09:57:46 AM yeap that version of a streetfighter s1000 is horrible i think someone did one that was a lot better basically like a half faired version that was different but 10x better than the version shown above.
Title: Re: BMW S1000RR streetfighter......Yuch Post by: duccarlos on May 20, 2011, 10:08:52 AM Let's please stop referring to "it" as a streetfighter. The only thing it will ever be fighting is the ugly stick that keeps being cracked all over it.

Title: Re: BMW S1000RR streetfighter......Yuch Post by: Grrrly on May 21, 2011, 03:17:18 AM I guess the Christian groups are right and the end of the world is near for anyone to put "streetfighter" and that thing in the same sentence. That's about as opposite as you can get..... reminds me of the scooter from Quadrophenia.
(http://www.boingboing.net/scooter.png) edit: I just noticed that this was actually originally posted on Hell for Leather which labeled it as a BMW S1000RR CLASSIC.. no mention of anyone referring it to a streetfighter, but then again I'm not a subscriber so I can't see the full write up. Title: Re: BMW S1000RR streetfighter......Yuch Post by: zarn02 on May 22, 2011, 04:03:45 PM That bike is alarmingly wrong in most every way.
Title: Re: BMW S1000RR streetfighter......Yuch Post by: Statler on May 22, 2011, 05:43:31 PM I like it except for the fringe.
Title: Re: BMW S1000RR streetfighter......Yuch Post by: jvax on May 22, 2011, 10:47:43 PM Seriously?? [puke] Just look at that seat, those lights, EVERYTHING.... [bang] I was hoping no one inserted that picture on this thread, wait... on this forum, ever [puke] I can almost hear those Brembo brakes screaming to get away from that abomination. |
