Someone explain to me why this is cool... other than costing 10x as much when you drop it.

This is no different than having chrome all over the bike if it's not painted... bling for the sake of bling.

On the street, if the bike hits the pavement it is always your fault unless you run across a diesel spill or something of the sort. Not leaving margin for error on a blind turn is stupid.

I have been told that the newer bikes (i.e. 749) are more reliable and require less maintenance...... i am sure that skews my opinion of the 749 vs. 748 aesthetics debate.
