Like FNL said, they were VERY vague and never inspired any confidence. Of course getting off a GSXR and throwing a leg over this type of bike will skew your impression somewhat.

Here's a question. Is it pronounced "goo-Zee" or "goot-Zee"

Umm... I'm still not sure, I listened to it 10 times and sometimes it seems like he hit a "t" and others not.

Besides, who's this guy anyway? That's like going around this country asking people to pronounce ANY word, you might get 20+ different versions of it on tape!!!

Nope I once posted you were a "fucking dick!", so this would be the second most accurate thing I've ever posted!!!

nice body styling and frame, but that engine and swingarm completely destroy any good looks the bike might have had otherwise.

And shaft drive too...
