Bullet bike?

[Mexi-can't]

I've heard a few different "terms" for sport bikes, but "Bullet Bike" was a new one to me. My cousins boyfriend kept calling the FZ6 and Bandit that yesterday. It was all I could do to keep from laughing every time he said it. :Flash:


What are terms you've heard?

That is an old cira 1980's term. It came when 60 Minutes did a story on "Bullet Bikes" and how people are dying left and right on them. The bikes from then look pretty tame today.

My favorite term so far is "Zip and Splat."

 

[Tailgate]

"crotch rocket" is another but everybody's heard this one. I think he got "bullet" from "bullet train" maybe?

 

[Motogiro]

How about "Rice Rocket" or "Rice Burner"

One I have heard a few times is Organ Donor.

Doing my best not to add truth to the name!
