1199 Photo leak!

[El Matador]

perfect. Personally, my only complaint about the 1098 is it's sheer size. Makes it a beast to handle in slow corners. I know a lot of people complain about the tight ethos of the 996, but that's the perfect size to me. Then again, I'm 5'9" and 165 lbs 

Don't worry about that, you'll hit your growth spurt soon.

That's like complaining that your wife's ass looks too much like Jessica Alba's.

  One could be so unfortunate.

Maybe. Maybe then I'll look as old as you?

Sure, but you'd have to lose that gut for it to happen. o

Damn that thing looks good.

Can't wait to buy one when my insurance doesn't cost 2000K a month for anything over a 600. 

Although, it has begun to look more "generic" with so little separating it from the Big 4. Still sexy though.

Im in if it comes with that sweet fanny pack.

Kinda looks like someone painted a KTM RC8 red and snapped a grainy photo...

I cant wait to see the Official pics

the more i look at the tail the less i like it.
it's following the trend instead of setting one.

I wonder what kinda gas tank it will have.

Well considering that the trend went like this

999->1098->RSV4->1199

Can it really be considered following the trend?

[zarn02]

At the moment I don't have an opinion on whether or not this or that body panel or whatever it is "setting" or "following" trends. However, I do hope as a complete bike it is more "inspired."

The 916-series looked different to most anything else out there.

Love it or hate it, the 999 was certainly interesting looking.

I never thought the 1098 looked terribly exciting. It doesn't look bad. On the contrary, it's quite a nice looking motorcycle. But as a whole it didn't command my attention in the same way the 916-series and 999 did.

Here's hoping that the final version of the 1199 will do just that.

I don't know. The 999 tail is pretty unique. I think it went more like

MV F4 -> 1098

RSV4 -> 1199 (from what I can see, whcih isn't much).

The RSV4 tail doesn't look to me like it followed the 1098 too much. But if it did, the 1098 definitely followed the MV.

This.
