6th Gen Review

A review that I haven't seen myself, nor posted here on the forum - the review is a little hit and miss ''dated styling'' ?? The 6th gen looks spot on to me and still very cutting edge, although I agree with the comment about the latest VFR being more sports orientated than the previous.. not sure about the comments about the handling, seeing what some of you can do with these things around a racetrack.. anyway, here's the link:

That's a relatively accurate account of the 6th gen...

I think I'm pretty objective but some of the logic in that review doesn't make sense. Also, cramped legroom for a sport tourer? Uhh, some of these "writers" forget how the genre started which was touring on a sport bike!

Dated styling? If anything the styling was a little ahead of its time and just now looking "normal".

It's kind of poorly written IMO with many contradictions.

I agree, some questionable observations but overall very positive I think

Some valid points but also some poor observations IMO. The writer didn't sound like he really liked the bike much.

Seems like it was written by someone who has no idea what a terrific all-around streetbike is supposed to be. :dry:

I find alot of reviews have that same problem, alot of the motorcycling press really don't get what the VFR is about.
