Derrick, the SVS is great, and IMO it's a real sport bike, at least in it's current state (M4 Ti exhaust, Race Tech'd front end, Traxxion Dynamics resprung/revalved Gixxer shock, Kevlar brake lines in the mail, to be rejetted/de-snorkeled this week).

 

Inline-4 torque these days is pretty damn impressive and of course the compactness of those engines make them so frickin' light. That said... I'm a twin lover at heart ever since I had a 916 back in '96.



here's a little stupid movie clip someone wanted me to make of my arrow exhaust (sorry, crappy quality, from my camera)

Loki,

That's an awfully sweeeet bike you have there, & hearing your movie clip didn't do anything to diminish my lust over the RC51! I'm a twin guy too, and the RC would be my next likely bike if I can't stick w/ my SV (which I should, since it's everything I need...but that RC is just so trick!).

That's better than sex! HAHA Nice video! I love the sound of a twin in the morning!

Cheers

Jeff

 

I was at my local dealer last week helping one of my buddies pick out a dirtbike. The salesman and I were looking at the little Gixers and chatting while my buddy was trying to make up his mind. I asked him if he had any GSXR1000's he told me no and something else that was interesting.

The dealer has sold 12 of them this summer.

8 have have come back wrecked!

Squids, jeez.

Oh ya, my buddy decided on a CR125
