My point is that your opinion is a subjective reaction just like everyone else’s but you present your views as if they were quantifiable, objective analysis that could be agreed upon and can even take the form of constructive criticism.
You can’t legitimately criticize this machine because there are no rules regarding customizing a motorcycle. Opinion is based completely on personal taste and has no objective or even rational foundation and should not be confused with some sort of generally accepted artistic principle.

And also funny, that usually if scads of people just post “yes”, or “+1″, they usually get treated as yes-men, sycophants, or people without enough knowledge to form an opinion.

And if nobody posts at all, it would be taken to be a rejection by ostracism.

I guess it is just a case of being criticized either way. At least criticizing the bikes or the photo composition is on-topic, rather than criticizing the other critics.

I’ve long wondered why these bikes tend to have enduro-grade ride height.

Couldn’t one fit shorter shocks in the rear, and shorter forks on the front, and bring the bike back down to earth, to a reasonable height that still preserves clearances?

People used to drop the forks by raising them up through the triples… I haven’t seen that happen much in the last few years… the rear suspension seems to be getting higher, instead.
