oh man is that NOSSSSSSSSS?  :mrgreen: sorry i had to throw a cheezy fast and furious term in there....keep us posted on how it works out. Bob might have some competition, for the 1/4 mile at least.


ps: I'm sure this has been asked many times before but what does the "slingshot" mean? Some UK ballyhoo?

The 'Slingshot' refers to the type of carbs used, the same on all GS's. Don't the US market GS's have this decal as standard?

Can't say that I've ever seen that around here.  One of the guys on our GS group ride last summer asked if my bike was a slingshot because of the paint/decals on my '90.  I had no clue what he meant :lol:
