The gixxer was the fastest but the Buell was for posing.

It's nice to be important, but more important to be nice.

Liking the "stealth bomber" GSXR
Not to sure with the Buell - it probably looked magnificent in the flesh - but for some reason it doesn't do it for me. Whether it's because I'm not keen on engines that have loads torque but run out of revs or it's the headlight unit that looks like it's falling off ?
I'm probably talking rubbish - must be sober then !
Yep definitely prefer the Gixxer

If it takes more than 2strokes then your just playing at it..

Its just the angle of the pic with the Buell, it used to lift the front wheel at just over tickover and top out at 135mph but it sounded awesome as the tank is the air box and i had the mod done so all there was under there was a K&N filter held down with a small plate which means shit loads of induction noise that combined with the cans it was mental.
As for the GSXR i sold it because i nearly flipped it in 3rd which would have stung for abit, so i quit while i was ahead but now 5yr later i want another.
