Yeah I think even Streetfighters magazine would reject that as a mid-life-crisis

It's very 1990s, not sure if I like it or not, I think the 750 Slingshots were the most uncomfortable bikes I've ridden, nice handling, but I used to get cramp in my hips on them.

Although the original Cool as Ice GSXR was of the more manly 1100cc variety.

The pink gives it some merit.

They're alright to get running on pods, you need an expensive Dynojet kit and a man called Chris who's done loads of them.

Should've used a KC Daylighter cover rather than the smiley face.

Mr Ice was apparently very good at wheelies on said 1100. Director was going apeshit.

Very very good on an MX bike too.


That 750 looks a lot better than most post 2000 streetfighters, doesn't look like it's been hit from the back like most did. Including mine.

I like that. A bit different. And a strong look.

It's not for me but it's very 90s Boxhill so it's OK with me.
