Any fan of the evergreen Suzuki GSX-R has their favorite model. Some are drawn to the nostalgic appeal of the older ‘slabside’ and ‘slingshot’ GSX-Rs, while others prefer the refinement and performance of the newer Gixxers. Marc Bell plays on both sides of the fence. His latest project proves it. It’s based on a 2009 Suzuki GSX-R1000 K9, but it’s been treated to a retro-fabulous makeover, with new bodywork and a retina-searing livery. He calls it the ‘Slabshot.’ Day to day, Marc works as a fabricator under the moniker HAXCH, specializing in high-end metal work for designers, architects and artists.
