Hi Jerry
Not closed really just added to
we've never had a poll on this subject (incredibly)
So I've sort of moved it sideways due to your
excellent prompt.

LOL! No worries. Serious tho, I'm interested in why? Not just 'cos I've got one'.

BTW, katana - that's my ideal monster - after the rs obviously!

Aesthetically - airocooled every time. Maintenance-wise air-cooled again.

Performance-wise obviously the ugly one wins but I'm dead happy with my aging 900 so I vote air-cooled.

We're all entitled to our own opinions its just that all
those who's opinion is water cooled are best are wrong.

In my opinion

Air cooled...... who wants to see that ugly plumbing... not me

Watercooled. If I wanted to ride an antique design I'd have bought an old Triumph!!

Ahem - I think the word you were looking for is 'classic' not 'antique'!

Can I vote twice ?
Once for the air cooled versions looking better
and a second time for the waterr cooled one I'm getting.

The other day I had best of both worlds riding my aircooled bike back through some of the worst rain ever, the bike suddenly become watercooled with out any additional pipeing. temperature went as low as 58 degrees.

Only problem is its weather dependenant and rain is not to everyones taste.

Aesthetically it's definately air cooled.
Having said that, my dream bike is an S4RS in ivory with a red frame. Now, if only I had a spare ten grand.........!

In my personal opinion I prefer the Watercooled look, it seems to fill the bike out more and make it more, erm....butch.

Plus loads of more parts for your money (edit: To go wrong)
