I need it! The headlight made me throw up in my mouth a little though. Needs a cr light.
 
Generally a pretty good-looking bike! It's nice to see more of the frame than the RX offers. The tank & tail section continue to be some of the nicest to my eye.

On the other hand, I'm not sure about the little black 'beanie cap' over the headlight. It also appears like the designers continue to wrestle with how to house the radiators so they're functional but integrated. They've been visually minimized with more matte finish & a glossy accent above, but they still look like they did on the 1125: an afterthought that just gets in the way of seeing the motor!
 
Those bars look like the Carmichael bend dirt bike bars I have on my xb9. I can see a lot of them getting wrecked the first few months out due to it being a wheelie monster. Hooligans, that's what they'll turn you into if you ride one.

Agree. I would even like the simplicity of a lightning light and windscreen. More of a naked look.

From where the frame pucks go back I really like it. I agree about the radiators. From the pictures they just don't flow or fit with the rest of the bike. Aesthetically I'm not sure I like them or the headlight assembly. Wonder if that "beanie cap" houses the gauge cluster and electronics. The wider top and bottom with the narrower center is also curious. Wish there was a picture from the rider perspective.

I had hoped it would have an updated lightningish look. I was SO looking forward to the SX. Instead of the I just opened the best present ever on Christmas morning reaction I had more of a thanks for the sweater grandma reaction. Maybe it will grow on me or better pictures and more views will help.
 
I've been in chop mode lately. The SX looks like a chopped up RX. Here's a photo chop on the 1190SX.

Is anything important under the pillion pad on the 1190RX?
 
It could really use a chin spoiler. Maybe that would help it some.

And in that video, they are in Indianapolis at the track today. They're like a couple miles away from me. I wonder if I can get into see it.
