    No a Yoshi! Gixxers all need Yoshi pipes.

    I hate when people say "Yoshi".

    Nope. Duc - first three. Ape - uses first two. Beemer - uses first two adds the r sound. Kawi uses first three adds an e sound. Gixxer skips right over a letter totally ignore it then goes on down the line. Makes no sense at all.

    You being used to it doesn't make it less of a street squid term. That's where it came from and what it will always be :D

    Blade is short for fireblade and zed is Britspeak for the letter Z so I get those for sure.

    having owned two s1000rr's i'd buy another in a heartbeat. great bikes. kinda boring though, which is why they're affectionally called the german "gixxer" :D


    i'd like to have one set up for sport touring.. comfort seat, maybe slightly lower pegs, heli bars, pilot roads, and a taller windscreen.. it's already got cruise control (godsend to get weight off your wrists on occasion) and heated grips. such a great bike.

    Ape is dumber than Gixxer. :D
     
  16. I don't care about any of that shit. I just don't feel like typing out "GSX-R" every time on my phone.

    If y'all don't want to see it, then maybe talk Mongo into censoring "Gixxer" so it changes to ":):):):):):)" automatically like HEROIC used to do. :crackup:

    I'm not going to type that bullshit out every time just to please you fuckers. :moon:

    Auto complete on my phone suggest "GSX-R" as soon as I type "gs". That is more specific than "gi", so it's actually faster than using the positively proletariat term "gixxer". You should get a more modern phone, it seems. Maybe your stuck on an iphone?

  19. I'm on a new iPhone 7. When I type "GS" it wants to autocorrect it to "Ha".

    Maybe you should not worry about what terms other people use to specify bikes.
