Bah, my friend and I are battling over which is the nicer looking bike, the Daytona 675 Triple or the newer version of the Suzuki GSXR 750

Images for the two bikes are here:

So which do you think is the nicer looking bike?

If only I didn't have kids.. and responsiblities  Sad

I voted for the Daytona.. on looks alone, as that was the question.

I'd guess the Gixer is more fun to ride.. and probably better financially in the long run...

Given the choice I'd go for the Suzy any day  Wink

Personally I thought the 750 looked better. Both are amazing bikes (the best I have seen so far) but I thought the fairing was a bit more interesting on the 750. The 675 seems to be pointing down quite alot, it has a very high looking back-end.

I would take both home any day (and wait 6 years before I can ride one lol)



Craig, is there really a better looking bike out there? *shifty eyes*

Oh man, that looks nearly as bad as the MTT Turbine Superbike  Grin

I think the 1098 is the only decent looking Ducati

The Ducati wins it by a country mile. Im not a bike man by any means but id take a 99- whatever over the other two. If only for the noise it makes. They do sound good at cadwell.
