Suzuki and Kawasaki are ending the deal, established in 2002, where they produce joint technology, citing “brand confusion” with consumers as the reason.

The deal originally was for commonality of parts, but was quickly extended to certain parts of the two companies quad bike and motorcycle range – the V-Strom/KLV series being the first two-wheeled example of ‘model sharing’.

According to industry sources, the deal is to end in 2007.

I think Suzuki no longer wanted to be associated with Kawasuckme's. Thats all it was really.
The deal started one night when they were on the piss, Suzuki have just woken up to look next to them in bed, to there horror was this big lump of green...
.. weed..
and then Kawa had realised how low they had stooped. Glancing over at the end of the bed were tyres and fairings of all sorts, just thrown in a drunken state.. what has kawa done..?

Suzie lets a loud one drop, the backfire burns the carpet, while simutanisouly playing with her sump plug.. kawa isn't impressed really, and feels this is a bit of a let down, compared to the previous night he vaguely remembers.. as far as he's concerned, the mod'd pipe is a god send, for the moment.. Knocking back his oil, he wonders if now would be a good time to split.. A good wheelie could be just the trick here

what can kawa say? Could he have got off lightly? With a heart felt look;

"Fine, I'll get the devorce papers. It'll take a few years, but it'll happen doll.. I'll still support the kids too. Someone has too.."

mutters under his breath "Honda were so much better at taking it up the tail pipe anyway"
