Podcast 535: The First(and best?) Superbike - The GSXR-750

Motorcycles & Misfits

This week on our podcast we talk about an interesting bike that came to the garage, now known as the Chuckus. A Chinese clone of a custom Ruckus. Sounds weird? It is. Death machine? Maybe. Fun? Definitely. Next up we go over the crash stats from Sturgis Bike Week, and discuss why these numbers are accepted every year. Then we settle in for Emma's History Hole on a bike that deserves due respect: the Suzuki GSX-R 750. These bikes hit the scene in 1985 and were a huge leap in the evolution of the sport bike, and are still being produced today. Sit back and learn about their history. What does GSX-R stand for? How about GS or CBR? Play along in the Acronym Game and see how well you do. We try out a new segment called Wat Dat!? Do you have a part on your bike that your not sure what it does? We do, and we ask Emma to explain Wat Dat is. And lastly we read listener emails and answer questions. With Liza, Stumpy John, Miss Emma and Bagel.
