Would like an R version. The Shiver would look good in a black and yellow wasp paint scheme.

All of this just leads back to how foolish HD was for killing off their streetfighter style bikes, obviously there is a market for these things.

As far as Aprilia vs. Kawi... Aprilia makes some fine machines, if the dealer network was a little larger it would be nice to own something that they produce.

Buell led the way with the naked street bikes!

Technically, Buell led the resurgence of naked street bikes. When I started riding in the early 80's, they were ALL naked street bikes.

Naked bikes in recent years have had a tough go in North America. One model hot one year only to mold in dark corners the next two years. Slow Buell sales also support that...........

Slow sales overall lead Suzuki to not make 2010 model year changes and keep selling the back stock of 2008 and 2009.
