Ok, sounds strange, but the new 800cc bikes to me look more 'wacky' and futuristic. I think it's great. I've never though GP bikes should resemble road bikes.

I hope the 800s are noticably smaller and more compact than the 990s. I like the 990s; however, I like the sleek, compact look of the smaller 2-stroke GP bikes.
