^Intentions are good. I'm on the gixxer forums as well. The thread is in a donating members area so I can't link it but here's the first post:
So this guy at work has been feeding me the longest line of [bs] I've ever heard from anyone in my entire life. I've pretty much called him out on everything he's said about bikes, yet he continues his lies...it was funny at first, now it's really beginning to piss me off because he NEVER shuts up about it...
He started out when I first started working there by telling me he was a professional drag racer...later on that week, it changed from professional drag racer to a professional drag racer for SUZUKI. He claims he runs low to mid 6's in the quarter mile on his 2005 BUSA with a stock swingarm, and a custom motor, and nitrous.
So I have to deal with him trying to talk to me about the performance of motorcycles every freaking day that we're both at work...which is fine if you're talking to someone who knows what they're talking about, or who doesn't know what they're talking about and is just trying to learn more...but when someone claims they know what they're talking about and says you're wrong about everything and just lives a continuous lie...it's a [f***ing] pain in the [butt] to say the very least...
Anyway, he sends me this email the other day...and it's too damn good not to share with all of you, I'm sure you'll get just as much of a kick out of it as I did

Nice lookin ride. Why they stock wheels? Why not magnesium or carbon fiber on a drag bike?

What kind of exhaust is that? I asked him this, because I knew it was a Brock's system, and wanted to see if he knew, and if he didn't, what he would come up with....it starts to get REALLY good here

Dude...FlowMaster does not make motorcycle exhausts. Period. That's a Brock's 4-2-1 full drag system. In fact, that same bike is on Brock's Performance's website under their customer rides section...
At this point, he walks over to my work area and gets PISSED because I told him there was no such thing as a Flowmaster Motorcycle Exhaust...and continues to tell me, that it's not a Busa motor, it's a completely custom motor that can support a "single chamber flowmaster". He then looked at the picture of the SAME bike I had pulled up on Brock's Performance's Website and says "what the [heck] are they doing with a picture of my bike on that website? I didn't give them permission to use a picture of my bike!?"
He then said "I'll tell you what, I'll go call Suzuki right now and prove that it's a Flowmaster Exhaust", then he starts to walk away...but I stopped him and said, "no call them from right here and put them on speaker", but he refused...he said he had to call them from his cell phone or they wouldn't answer. So he went on about his merry way....bout 10 minutes later, I got the last email about the subject for the rest of the night lol

It has a flowmaster airflow chamber with the brock system. That's what my mechanic said
later on in the evening, there was one other discussion about the bike. He told me he was going to have Suzuki put an extended swingarm on it because the stock swing arm wasn't keeping his front wheel down... Now that you've read this, go back and look at the swing arm in that picture
