So, since I got my bike, I get stared at constantly and waved to. I think the FZ8 is a dang good looking bike myself.
My neighbor (who is a rider as well) was walking by and asked if it was the Ducati Monster or Streetfighter (2 bikes I actually considered before finding my FZ8). I happily told him that it was a Yamaha FZ8 (and gave him all the specs). He was BLOWN away that I got the bike I got for the price I got it (which is easily 1/2 or 1/3 the price of a Ducati).
So, all I can say is well done Yamaha! You've made a dang good looking bike that appears to be way more expensive than it is, and it's a real head-turner
