What a dog.
|
Yet another Gixxer, BFD. That Gladius looks pretty neat, but geezuss, they gotta do something about that name!
|
style..
Gladibus has melted toothpast thing going on, but new body and trellis look to be taking fight to wee Monster customers.
And again, pant, cant wait for LiterMadness Comparo. Looks like Suzuk intends to regain crown.. |
.001% Better Than Last Year!
|
Gladius? Was the name Monzuki taken?
|
Camel dung...
I'm definitely not feelin' the new vibe from Suzuki. The Gladius looks like... excrement. Please, someone at Yamaha or Ducati, save us!
|
I think the Call It ANYTHING But Gladius would look great if they didn't put that dumbass paint job on it. Red and black, silver, just not the snow-cone truck colors. I'm biased, I really like the engine platform.
|
Gladius? More like Hideous. It is hard to hard to say "Gladius" without a sarcastic lisp. Ack. Worst motorcycle name ever.
To KTM - Please allow the space alien origami guy to be reassimilated back into the Borg collective. To Suzuki - Please fire the toothpaste guy and the marketing guy! It is like Suzuki is not interested in making money. Get rid of the Gladiola thing and take that gem of an SV650 motor and stick it into a sharply styled dirt bike influenced Versys squashing adventure/motard thing with real all surface suspension and sell it at a reasonable cost. Don't retune/detune it. Give it to us full strength so it will do sick wheelies on it's squishy long travel suspension. We like that. Also no skinny 19" front wheels or weird Strom stuff. Take the sharp looking new WR250R Yamaha motard and Supersize it with SV650 power. That would rock. |

Good advice, Duken4evr. I'd buy one. I'm about ready to build an EX500/EXC Franken bike like the Weber brothers did. This would save me the trouble. |
