Nice one Mike! Welcome to the Suzuki owners club

The chequered flag isnt too bad necessarily, there's just too much of it! Nothin a weekend or two of tinkering cant fix and with a bit of detailing Im sure it'll come up looking hot.

How does it go?

Seems alright, just got her registered about 3.5 hours ago. then came home and wasted HEAPS of time just stuffin about in the garage and removing the stickers on the front and back (left the middle ones as they apparently cover a bit of damage) glad i did, she looks HEAPS better now. Aside from a minor fairing graze across the left side, but oh well.

she goes well, about to go take her out for a spin shortly after a bit of tucker.

They were a heavily under-rated bike at the time they came out.... and always were I guess.....

But that paint job is flaming chronic! Ge the blowdryer out right now!

have a look at the sydride thread from last sunday, you'll see the 900 in there.... just

.

and agreed about the stickerjob. after registering her saturday i wasted 2+hrs peeling the f*in things off, was worth every second to de-chequer her.

Congrats on the new bike mate.
Don't listen to them, Suzuki's are good bikes!!

Cheers Duane, I knew it was a good bike when i first tried it, and on the sunday ride i was blown away how much better it was than i expected it to be. (absolutely no comparison to my old gpx, despite that being a good ride, this is phenominally better).

I know im getting the "its not kawa, its shit" ribbing, but meh, what am i to expect having owned 3x kawa's before this and being a continual member on a kawasaki forum

Congrats, Mike

At least you now have a bike that is about a decade younger than the last one
