Talk:Suzuki GSV-R

No longer 990cc
The 2007 season marked the implimentation of the 800cc four stroke mills. But, it is still worth retaining the information about the 990cc engines.75.112.134.2 10:12, 1 September 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Suzukigsvr.jpg
Image:Suzukigsvr.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Wheel size
I think there's a mistake on the official website. The specs say the wheel size is 429mm, which comes out to about 16.9 inches -- substantially bigger than the standard 16.5 size. I think the website meant to say 419mm, but I didn't want to make that assumption and instead of using the auto mm template, I just typed in what I saw at the website. Maybe I'll add an asterisk.--Rubber Nipple Salesman (talk) 16:11, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

Merger
The name of the 800cc bike still remains Suzuki GSV-R, similarly to how Yamaha's MotoGP bike is still called YZR-M1, Kawasaki's MotoGP bike is still called Ninja ZX-RR and Ducati's MotoGP bike is still called Desmosedici. Chris Ssk talk 01:51, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
