I remember seeing a sneak preview of this a few weeks ago and thinking

The only thing I don't like about it is the headlights. I'd probably swap that out for something more modern looking like the FZ1/FZ6 naked headlight style headlight.

They just look old to me, not modern enough to match the rest of the bike.

Re: Triumph Street Triple R Announced
Yamaha should do a limited run version of the Naked FZ6, with decent adjustable suspension, etc.

Every time i see the Triumph naked's, i think this. I reckon an FZ6 with all the trick bits would leave the Triumph for dead...that FZ6 engine is a ripper!

That would be sick. A true naked FZ6 with all R6 bits: suspension, motor, brakes, etc.

Yes it would...and it would save us that like Yam's, and the FZ6 riding position, who it would save a lot of money & trouble modding their bike's to get this bike!

The FZ-R6?

Agreed! I love everything but the front headlight. I am partial to a more modern look up front.
