I agree with Paul, at least it's not a angulared mirrored / headlight massive triangular shaped silencers new bike.
It has flat tracker styling, comfy riding
position, overall silhuoette ticks the naked bike aesthetics box for me.
And I notice Yamaha have refined our good ol' Kawasaki aircooled pre-1980
Z-series cam cover style even more than the early XJ's !!
A decent aftermarket stubbier silencer can would be first thing I'd
change on it.

Seen it a show in yellow.
Looked OK, but I think it would have looked a lot better without those round side panels.
Coloured ZRX type side panels would have looked good.
