Model nicknames

Sooo, we have for the SV curvy and pointy.

GSXR I have heard of Slingshot, Slabside, and SRAD? Can anyone elaborate on the main differences?

Any other bikes that have similar model nicknames? Show off your bike knowledge ;)

Bodyshapes (Slabside) or introduction of new technology (Slingshot carbs) (SRAD = Suzuki Ram Air Direct).

This for GSXR's. SRAD was also applicable to the TL

GT750 'Kettle' because of its liquid cooling
