There's a Reason I Don't Own a Gixxer...

...it's because my IQ is higher than 70 (OK, racers on this board with GSXR 750s aside...):
http://www.gixxer.com/forums/showthread.php?t=226570
This one takes a bit of parsing, but it's well worth the read...let me see if I can summarize:
Bike won't start after using NOS fuel additive
sti2gsxr:
My bike was running like crap on my way home from work so I stopped at a gas station to get some NOS. I poured in 2 bottles and rode it home. Well I don't think it helped because it ran even worse on the way home and now it won't start. Any ideas?
njracer:
Why would even put that SHIT in your bike??
sti2gsxr:
It was running rough so i thought it would help
sti2gsxr:
Well I don't how how MORE octane can hurt anything....
about a page later...
sti2gsxr:
thanks. I dumped (2) 20oz bottles in a half tank of gas. Guess I over did it
wally beast:
Are you messing with us? Because the stuff that looks like a NOS bottle, IS an energy drink...I think you're screwin' with us...The fuel additive doesn't look like a NOS bottle...
sti2gsxr:
are you make the beast with two backsing kidding me! now what do I do?
G420Funk:
this just went from fail to EPIC FAIL
soysauce021:
seriously dumping the NOS drink in your tank = EPIC FAIL...but EPIC LOLZ for the rest of us.
Not quite sure if it's real, or if he's screwing around. But the funny thing is just how
plausible
it is...

Dumbfounding. Absolutely dumbfounding. I guess reading labels is too much to think of these days.

I'm sitting here thinking that I own what is considered one of the most unreliable and finicky bikes on the planet and asking myself, "Why DON'T I own a Gixxer?"

...because you too have an IQ greater than 70.
Reminds me of one of my favorite movies..."Brawndo...it's got what plants crave. Electrolytes"

I dunno...I'm pretty sure I don't have 70 fingers and toes--I can't count to anything beyond 34 and a half.

He obviously read the NoS part. Then again, those may be the only three letters he knows...
