“I really don't care for any of the big bikes like the Hayabusa and ZX-14. Don't get me wrong they are nice but they don't handling as good as the 1000's and lower models”. Sammie picked the GSXR-1000 because he wanted a bike with big power but one that would still handle well in the curves. “I like all styles of riding but I favor the curves the most. It's just something about getting down low in a curve that gets me going for the day” said Sammie. ...
Check out the pics in the link above. I LOL'd after reading the above + pics.

You guys laugh, but what you don't know is that an extended swingarm, fat tire, and chrome are the MOST effective ways to improve the aggressiveness of a gsxr's lean in AND at the very same time raise your cool factor by 200%... It's ok this is not common knowledge to all riders, only the elite few of us that ride shirtless with shorts and flip flops for less drag while ripping up the twisties!!
