I wish they make mt07 tracer as mt09 tracer is too big for me :-(
Apparently it's in the pipeline. They've just released the "MT07 retro" (I forget the name: XVS700 I think?), and it's the first in a long line of bikes based on it, including an adventure/tourer.

That thing would look wicked parked next to my all black FZ6 naked.

The headlight is ugly as sin, but everything else makes me want to go lie down in a dark room in the quiet for a bit.

As for the FZ1 surviving in the US: I don't know. The entire FZ series has been discontinued in the UK and replaced with the MT series, so I don't know.

I think the front end looks ridiculous as well.

I'm sure it'll come to the US and my prediction is they'll call it the FZ-10. That follows the the naked FZ-09 and disconnects it from the half-faired FZ1.

I actually really like the headlight :D It gives the bike that bit of charm the FZ09 is lacking.

I love how this thing is basically a naked, lots of the new names have FAR more plastic on them.

I personally liked this headlight, looks like a bit of BMW S1000R street bike with a touch of Ultron look.
But I basically don't like non-faired version, due to winds at high speeds and fatigue on hands..!
But that tail light reminds me of FZ09 or FZ07, which I didn't like.
The rest of the bike, looks similar to existing fz1.

Hope the US version comes with ABS option.

It's got ABS. As well as a load of riding modes. Its the cheaper version of the R1 that's been released in the US.
