The new gixxer is verrrry nice in the flesh.
But a little small. People of more fuller proportions like you and me StoneChucker - we'd just look silly on them...
However, I was very surprised by how good that odd-looking muffler actually looks in the flesh.
The promotional pictures tended to really make it look large and ungainly, when it looks quite svelte and stylish...
Anyway, its too small, too fast, and the suspension is bloody harsh.
And if I had $22,000 it would be sitting in my gargre. I wouldn't care that it looks like a 400...
And I to my motorcycle parked like the soul of the junkyard. Restored, a bicycle fleshed with power, and tore off. Up Highway 106 continually drunk on the wind in my mouth. Wringing the handlebar for speed, wild to be wreckage forever.
