So to commemorate the 50th anniversary of Suzuki they are releasing a limited edition GSXR 1000 with 100 units available. My first thought was kick ass! A Limitied Edition Gixxer with lots of high end Yosh and Ohlins parts. Nope, chrome frame, wheels and some anodized crap. Very squidly Suzuki.

Wonder if they designed a quick release helmet strap for the back.

Im a Suzuki guy but apparently they fired everybody in their R&D dept. That thing is one step from having a rainbow sticker on the back of it. Horrible, just horrible. F-

Nothing wrong with LEDs, but that bike is fucking ugly. No LED is going to make it look pimp.

I've owned several Gixxers and they'll always be special to me, but this was a great chance to roll out a bike that comes stock with a full Yosh pipe and lots of trick Yosh parts. Instead, they give us this crap?? A true special edition, with Ohlins suspension and Brembo MC and monoblocs would have been very sweet and worth looking into

Everyone keeps talking about yosh this ohlins that. I would take a certain bet that the majority of people throughtout the country that own sportbikes don't give a flying shit about better suspension, brakes, or what exhaust is on there as long as there's something other than stock that makes noise.

i guarantee there are more stock sportbikes around than modified. In all honesty I don't really see anything wrong with this new one. Ya it's a lil flashy, so what?!?

I think i'd be funny if it came with a Team engine and was incredibly fast and ugly at the same time

I call bull on that. There's a reason that the manufacturer that wins the most races sells the most bikes the next year.

I dont know... I think looks sells more new bikes to the masses. Its not like anyone really gets to test drive the shit out of a bike before buying it.

Second might be some of the newer technologies, maybe but when someone walks into a motorcycle shop and sees something "they have to have" thats the one. Probably because of the design or the color scheme but when you know, you know.

I wonder how much more they will try to sell this bike for? I don't mind the color for the plastics... or even the chain, just a little over done for my taste.

However, we all know this bike will sell..... Just like past bikes like the repsol edition CBR's, different variants of the R1's including FIAT graphics, and many others.....

If you look through the history of the GSX-R .. They are continuing the tradition. To me it will always be white with blue graphics and white wheels. No ghey tribal flames or such nonsense. http://www.asphaltandrubber.com/racing/suzuki-endurance-racing-team-historic-bike-photos/

The ones up until the last 3 years ago were all pretty badass looking. Then you have this crap.... It sort of reminds me of the 500's.

The Repsol and Fiat editions are sexy as hell. This GSXR isn't even worth mentioning in the same sentence as those two. It looks like a mid 90s Star Boyz edition.

Guess what's on ebay, too bad it's not the blue chain edition. check out the red spectacles from the back view - http://www.ebay.com/itm/331001573176?item=331001573176
