Dunno mate, I wasn't with him. The training place is still based round the back apparently.
Said they are selling brand new kwaks and suzukis and a small section selling clothing etc.

sorry there should of been the word "NEW" before suzuki.tattoo wrote:the thin paint goes accross the suzuki range...a mate sent his 1250 bandit back after only 5hrs because the paint started coming off the tank,plus the build quality was something to be desired,weld splatter allover the frame,loose clocks and engine mounting bolts..when he asked for his old bike back they'd sold it so had to scoure the country for another gsx1400 in the blue and white FE colours...says he'll never buy a suzuki again

Re: GSXR Getting on with it

absolutely blistering acceleration from 100+

You do not have to say anything. But it may harm your defence if you do not mention when posting something which you later rely on in quote. Anything you do say may be ripped to sh*t.
Re: GSXR Getting on with it
Bike and clutch feel fantastic now that a bush has been made up for the lever, feels like a totally different bike setting off now, no wonder it was such a pain getting it to launch with the amount of movement the canal had as the lever pivoted loosely around
Also love the fact the bike has a proper fairing, cleaned it when I got in from the birds and because it's got a rads that span from the yoke to the bottom of the engine covering the entire front the engine stays spotless both from the sides and the front
Going to knock something up to protect the linkages and bottom of the shock, area soon, was covered in tar from that road works in Yorkshire was a nightmare to get off! So if that can get to it easy then so can grit / salt and all the other crap
Ones that's sorted I'll be very happy with the protection the fairings offer
Went down the motorway, empty motorway so no spray, in the rain in jeans other night and got off the bike to find legs was dry and my chest too :-) that screen is worth its weight in gold!
