story is that today after a ride with my brother (r1 streetfighter ish) me(standard bandit 6) and nephew (dtx125) we finished at brothers house to be greeted by the husband of a friend of his wifes brothers cousin's sisters dog.
and he says "hi ive just got this bike and i thought i would come round and show everyone iv'e ever met".
so heres the thing the guy is in his early 30's and felt abused when the 17 year old nephew called his bike the uglyest thing he had seen on 2 wheels.me and brother agreed that it was indeed an ugly bike,the words "baboons arse"were used but anyway.
its a 1999 suzuki gsxf 750.
thing is he loves it and thats fine and im sure other people love it aswell.there is an alegro ownwers club.
are there any people who admit to owning this bike?that fell from the ugly tree(hitting every branch on the way down).
the worst thing is that its not a bad bike it rides ok ,its just so ugly

Nowt wrong with it, does the job adequately. I only jest becasue bazza owns one and I have no comebacks to his rare taunts. Laughing

If I can't get a decent faired bandit for this summer, I may consider one.

For all that think like that.... Middle Finger Very Happy. Wink

Bloody race rep ponces.

I don't really GAF if anyone thinks it looks ugly. There are faster /prettier/slower/uglier bikes.

It's been a while since peer pressure meant Jack Schitt to me...

Some people dont need or want a bike that does 180 mph. Been there, done that, got the Tee shirt. Most people have nothing to prove to anyone. Where am I going to use speed and power like that when theres a camera at every turning, and whats the point. One mans/womans bike is thier pride and joy

Everyone has his or her own choice about what they ride. My reasons for biking are enjoyment. Costs that aren't to high,

I hope I haven't offended anyone as that wasn't my intention. But for me a bike is a bike and a biker is some one, no matter what he rides, who loves bikes. Old, new, big or little.And that someone could be the person that pulls over to get you out of the preverbial when things go wrong
