Gixxer 1000 '01 vs sv650 '01...which is best...
 

honest this should be idle banter not bike talk & issues....

My SV was parked next to a gixxer thou today.

SV: Cleaned, autosoled, polished (hours cleanign yesterday: 4, last Sat: 3, Sat 2 weeks ago: 6 hours) It's CLEAN geddit?

Gixxer: Dirty. Last cleaned May last year. Last dropped Fri night...crash bungs askew, bar end missing.

3 Kids from a Holborn council estate come over & start chatting. They are all over the gixxer. They barely notice th SV. I ask which they prefer & all 3 say the gixxer. I ask why & bizarrely they say it's cleaner!!!!

Then as they're walking off (my mates are ROFLOL by this time) one kid shouts, "You'll never get a girlfriend with that yellow bike". I just look at him in dumbfounded silence whilst my mates are clutching their chests as if an Alien's going to pop out.

I sulked for the rest of the afternoon.

I think they use the term "owned" for quotes like that :lol:

Don't worry, remember, those that think they are cool like to be loved by everyone, hence actually making them very uncool.

Those that do what they want and make them happy and don't follow the crowed and be a sheep, arn't cool. But actually, they are very cool becuase they ARN'T following the crowed, doing the same thing....

Oh look, there goes another 1000cc CBR, GSXR, R1........... Followd by an R6, GSXR600, Kwack 636........ (get my point ;) ).

The proper reply to this was of course to say

"Nothing to do with my Yellow bike you toe-rag, its my yellow belly that lets me down"

Keep that one handy for next time :P

I have to say the Gixxer. Yellow bikes are Wrong FACT!

Re: Gixxer 1000 '01 vs sv650 '01...which is best...
 

yellow bikes are awesome. I love my yellow bike. Its the best bike in the world

Until I get my hands on a black honda SP2. Officialy Honda-stuck-on HRC sticker? Coolest thing ever. Cooler than absolute zero.
