Re: GSX-S 750
GSXR750s always felt more like the 1000s than the 600s despite the engine only being 150cc bigger, it's why I like 750s.
To be fair to 600s, when they made 80bhp they had some mid range power.

Re: GSX-S 750
Been there, done that, I prefer a 750 (says the man with an 1170cc bike sat in the garage)

They look like Asda own brand jobbies

Re: GSX-S 750
They're very comfortable and match my bike, or does my bike match them as I bought them before the bike?

I'd be buying these if I didn't already have a similar pair of blue Daytona boots

Re: GSX-S 750
I always fancied some daytona race boots.
Change bikes or leathers and you just buy a new boot outer. Flippin' expensive for the inners tho'

Re: GSX-S 750
Maybe a Micron can doesn't look right
It's also very loud, sounds really nice though, real rasp to it.

Re: GSX-S 750
I tend to agree, I didn't like the quality of any thing currently available new and had that Micron spare, the adapter to the front pipe makes the pipe long, but the can is enormous.Yorick wrote: ↑Sat Jan 15, 2022 1:37 pmThat's horrendousLe_Fromage_Grande wrote: ↑Sat Jan 15, 2022 1:37 pm Maybe a Micron can doesn't look right

I know you like 80s bikes,but best keep 80s cans off modern bikes,or cut 2/3rds off the thing.

Re: GSX-S 750
I don't think I'm going to try and cut real carbon fibre, the can is very light.KungFooBob wrote: ↑Sat Jan 15, 2022 1:39 pm Might look better if you cut it down a bit. Not stubby, just 100mm or something.

Re: GSX-S 750
I have got a stainless oval Micron I could shorten.
I had a titanium one, but that went with my FZR 400.
