Yup. my CBR felt 100% superior to it too. despite the gixxer being a 98 SRAD600 and mine an 87. I truly hate gixxers and most of the peopel that ride em. fuck I'll take a 1200 SPORTY over those framesnapping timing jumping ill designed pieces of shit.

I won't get into a "which bike brand is a better bike" debate. Everyone knows how close all 4 of the big 4 jap sportbikes are in performance. So when you say100% superior... you're talking out of your ass. especially when you are talking about an 11 year older bike.

My point is I HATED how the gsxr handled, felt and performed. then I had to work on the fucking thing. simply put, they suck ass and are 2nd to last on the quality chain.

which gixxer?

what model year?

what condition was it in?

was its suspension set up for you?

were its tires in good shape and proper inflation?

all of these facts (and more) will dictate your riding experience

damn I rule, look at how my sentences are lined up like a triangle & shit

by the way, early 00's CBRs (including mine) were crap compared to gixxers....Buzzy motors, thin pain, bad rectifiers.

Nah, I don't like it.

I did like this though,



As far as the GSXR hate goes, I'm not gonna take someone seriously that hasn't even owned a bike made in the 90s. Really, that's like Fred Flintstone pissing on a WRX or something.

It honestly just sounds like you hated it so much before you got on it that you wouldnt let yourself like it regardless.
