No idea, but it does have a nice graphic on it.

Oil or another substance simular in the carpark + stone cold tyres (looks like it just came out of the workshop or even worse, the showroom) = well you saw the video. Its not hard to do, and you sure you feel like a dick afterwards.

LOL ... of course I have ... nothing wrong with the banana ... even got a yellow wet weather jacket to match... ha ha

on a side note ... how long do you think it will take before the Maori's call foul about that design ... looks very "cultural"

Not so funny - there but for the grace of whatever deity we choose, goes us, not so?

(Memo to self - develop videocam jammer before picking up next bike)

The suit makes him look like a squid. When will people realise that bike branded leathers look stupid.

And this guy had Suzuki gloves too.

It looks like the Shark RSX series judging from the shape of the mouth air-vents. Not seen that paint scheme in NZ before looks nice. And that poor Gixxer...not the rider.

Agreed, them nice shiny slippery new tires must surely have hit something! You hear it rev just then he slides and goes down.

I recall picking up my new gixxer thou and taking it pretty easy, just in case. Easy to spin it up with a bit of gravity on the throttle.
