That I didn't buy this GSXR 1100 for a stupidly low price when I had the chance.

Ok so it stretched and chromed but I actually really like it. Would of changed the brakes mind.

According to the old owner the new owner killed it by throwing it down the street. Crying or Very sad

Ever came close to buying a bike you would of loved but didn't then really regretted it ?

Eew, that is nasty.

Far, far better to be cautious and avoid buying a dog than be impulsive and start a kennel Mr. Green

God McGee you're really turning into a Merrycan, that is a fucking shonky piece of crap.

If it was stock I would've slapped you for not buying it.... Polished sports bikes = ROFL.

The point of these bikes is to cruise.

The rides more relaxed but you still have the power to drag Wink

The single disk is for looks shows more of the chrome rim off.

A sportsbike missing a front disc is like a show fighter plane with it's guns removed. Heresy. Mr. Green

McGee, stretched bikes look crap, that's so obviously stretched it's unreal.

Hmmm, long wheelbase, polished parts... I reckon you want a cruiser but are frightened people will take the piss. Wink

hehe, ripped to shreads, Very Happy if i had owned that bike, it wouldnt be staying like that, i dont mind a streched bike or a polished bike, but it has to try and look cool, and that one just doesnt, with a different seat unit, it could be a different story all together,

I like it too, it's got an old school look to it and the way the engine seems to push the fairings out seems to underline how much power it has just waiting to be used...

It's got nothing to do with hating anything. I mean, if they want to show off the front wheel, graft a SS front end on, that would show some real imagination. Why just reduce the braking by half?

IMO, it's pointless but then I've never been a fan of polished frames/swingers etc. I ride my bikes, I don't want to polish them all day long.

Cheers

I like it, even the stretched swingarm don't look too bad, but those wheels look crap in my opinion, proper crap.

I have to agree with toby, polished stuff has no place on sports bikes.

Each to their own but....... Sick !

Sports bikes are made for going fast with an added tart appeal if you wish, but covering them in chrome is just wrong!

If you like chrome get a cruiser Wink
