Post by: kopfjäger on October 31, 2010, 11:06:55 AM A few mods, and it wouldn't be a bad ride.

Title: Re: 2011 naked gixxer!? Post by: TitanMonsterS4R on October 31, 2010, 03:52:59 PM looks like they borrowed the headlight from the Streetfighter.
Title: Re: 2011 naked gixxer!? Post by: TAftonomos on October 31, 2010, 04:12:05 PM I want a naked R1. Not a "naked" sort of version. I want the cross plane crank engine, R1 chassis/suspension, and an upright sitting position. Yeah, I know duc SBK. I also don't have 20K to spend on one (if I di, I'd buy the multi anyway).
Title: Re: 2011 naked gixxer!? Post by: kopfjäger on October 31, 2010, 04:13:45 PM ^^^ Buy one and mod the shit out of it. ;)

Title: Re: 2011 naked gixxer!? Post by: zarn02 on October 31, 2010, 04:36:13 PM Doesn't really do anything for me. *shrugs*
Title: Re: 2011 naked gixxer!? Post by: cbartlett419 on October 31, 2010, 04:39:23 PM Yeah it's a little ho-hum IMO.
Title: Re: 2011 naked gixxer!? Post by: Turf on October 31, 2010, 06:53:20 PM Suzuki's styling rarely does anything for me
this one is another...ehh Title: Re: 2011 naked gixxer!? Post by: psycledelic on October 31, 2010, 08:50:39 PM Awful pointy. That front fender sux.
Title: Re: 2011 naked gixxer!? Post by: RC Fan on November 01, 2010, 01:58:11 AM The GSR has been around for awhile overseas. They get quite a few bikes that we don't.
Title: Re: 2011 naked gixxer!? Post by: bunnyman666 on November 01, 2010, 05:13:07 AM Will they actually get it right?
The biggest problem I have with the Japanese nakeds is that the brakes and suspension are watered-down and sometimes the engine is nothing like the sport bike counterpart. Atleast the brake rotors are floating on this one. It would be nice to see it "right" rather than what we normally see with Japanese nakeds. I still would rather ride my 10 year old Duc... Title: Re: 2011 naked gixxer!? Post by: hackers2r on November 01, 2010, 06:31:38 AM Holy crap...just took a look at that fender after reading a few posts up; [puke] [puke] [puke] [thumbsdown]

And then there is the headlight they jacked from the streetfighter I'm not really a fan either, just thought it would be a new and interesting one in the naked market. Title: Re: 2011 naked gixxer!? Post by: Goat_Herder on November 01, 2010, 07:42:17 AM Doesn't look half bad. I guess my expecation is so low that this is exceeding that. Yes, that fender is awful and the headers/pipe isn't that great either.
Title: Re: 2011 naked gixxer!? Post by: Grrrly on November 01, 2010, 08:30:06 AM I like it a lot, except for the front brakes.

Title: Re: 2011 naked gixxer!? Post by: jabuan on November 01, 2010, 03:53:28 PM the instrument cluster's nice and functional though. has a built in gear indicator.
Title: Re: 2011 naked gixxer!? Post by: triangleforge on November 02, 2010, 08:18:23 AM Looks like this is the week for Japanese naked bikes -

Will it sell well? Hard to say... Title: Re: 2011 naked gixxer!? Post by: billruiz on November 03, 2010, 03:20:57 AM Oh yeah... I actually heard the crossplane R1 last weekend and it resurrected my love for Yamahas. Make it more retro, no detuning, call it FZ-1 if you want and less than $12K. [thumbsup]

Post by: Ahks on November 03, 2010, 06:30:27 AM Isn't the only way to get a true SBK feel from a naked would be to buy the SBK and take it's clothes off? Most or all the "naked" sport bikes on the market now are all detuned with bigger gears and smaller brakes.
Title: Re: 2011 naked gixxer!? Post by: TAftonomos on November 03, 2010, 07:16:29 AM ^^^ Buy one and mod the shit out of it. ;) I have to choose between doing this, or getting something "light" like a 690. I suppose I won't get any sympathy for those kind of choices [laugh] |
