Will anyone else ever make a Kooler Legendary bike than the GSXR ? , or will Suzuki lead the Sports Bike World for another Decade & a Half . Will the other " Gay Fag bikes " just give up ??

BMW will .... lead the charge ... K1200R, K1200S, F800S....... will be legends

But I am biased.

bwahahahaha, that's like saying kawasakis are cool

Of course they will, that's a given... nothing lasts forever. The surprise will be when that bike comes from China or Korea and not Japan.

but kawasakis are just green suzukis anyway. Dunno about the sports bikes, but as far as enduro goes Im pretty impressed with my DRZ...

If Triumph can continue making bikes like the new 675 then look out i reckon.

Where this all falls down is your assumption that we all think GSXR's and their competitors are actually Kool... IMHO, They are certainly very very - um - 'efficient' but alas, my 'kool' bone is un tingled by them so I shall retire from the thread and leave it to more modern people. You know, the ones that spell cool with a K...

Me? Well, blues just not my colour darhlink!

Norton Commando is pretty legendary in my books.I don't think any modern bike will become a legend.

Bevel drive ss ducatis spring to mind as legends as well,vincents..old Mvs..laverdas etc,somehow the gixxer doesnt compare amongst such company,only my opinion though.

Too elitist - Commando's were an everymans bike.

1972
In 1972 overseas sales of the Z1 (900cc) started. Sales of the domestic version, the Z2 (750cc), started the following year.

It was the birth of the Power King Legend
The Z1, with the world’s first air-cooled, DOHC, In-Line Four cylinder engine and other impressive specs, became the world’s most powerful motorcycle. Code-named "New York Steak" during its five-year development, the mouth-watering motorcycle was a huge hit from the moment of its release. The domestic Z2 enjoyed tremendous popularity in Japan.

Overseas the Z1 reigned as the "King of Motorcycles" for a number of years. Z1 mania still present today. In Japan, the popularity of the Z2 among motorcycle magazine readers catapulted it to No. 1 and the "Myth of Z was born".

Need I say more
