Gearbox whine?

[imdying]

Never heard a GSXR whine, although they do all sound like they're running 'rough', like a cammed up rod.

Fuck yes, I'm almost embarrassed to start mine up when Sal's CBR is idling away like an Accord.

It's all good the way it is... but can you imagine it on a standard pipe

[onearmedbandit]

I'm almost considering putting it on just for comparisons stake.

My 1st gen 750 has a faint whine to it, like a bus gearbox but stacks quieter - you can hear it if you really listen out for it but otherwise not. But if you are having a loud easily audible whine then yeah your box is on the way out, better to get it repaired now than have something explode

And of course when its running it sounds like a bag of bolts, but on a 1st gen thats better than purring quietly

GSX-R engines aren't quiet mechanically. It's part of their charm

Yup, every gixxer I've owned or ridden (with the exception of the 250's) has had the same mechanical noise. But never a gearbox whine.

The whine is normally their owners

More like the riders that've just be blown away by one, on a bike that cost way more...

Definitely. If they had the intake growl from the Kawasakis too, they'd be bitchin.

You can not beat a kawasaki intake roar.

Really? I beat the fuck outta a ZX6 off the lights yesterday morning on an R6. Utilizing only the rear wheel also.

But what did it's intake roar sound like mister?

Probably a bit difficult for you to get a test ride on one mate, but I assure you it's more than adequate. Thanks for your question.

I know, that's a bastard that is. I just have to buy, modify and then ride.
