G for giraffe or G for goat?

[prettybillie]

Okay - can someone clear this up for me. I was dating a tosser (who's KB handle will remain private ) who used to have a go at me for saying Gixxer with a g sound like giraffe . He would tersly say it's Gixxer with a g sound like goat. Anyhoo, since the tosspot dumped me I have met some really awesome KBer's who say Gixxer with the g sound like giraffe like I say . What is they way it should be said or will it be easier to stick with saying GSXR ha

You are CORRECT! Gixxer as in Jixxer!

[Cajun]

you could get really technical and call your bike a sixxer dc:< instead of a gixxer

I think term gixxer came more from europe/england.

Soft G is the right way- maybe there's something to your claim re hard G and tossers?

Someone who worries about it isn't worth hanging out with anyway.

G is for strings.

[ManDownUnder]

Either/either if you see my point. I've heard it said both ways.

G is for strings.

That was a bit brief (and to the point?)

You could call it a 'George' and be correct - s'yours.

Mine is a tractor.

Yeah, it's "jickser", so it sounds more alliterative when used with word like "jism".

Hair on a G string. One of my favourite pieces of music.
