Stopped in at local Suzuki dealer (Sportzone Suzuki) and peered in through the window at new 'zooks, damn the yellow 600 and 1000 look awesome, way better than in photos. $15995 for new 600? hmmm, thats not a bad price. $13995 for blue SV1000S with yoshi pipes, very nice, sigh....

Went and had a look in there yesterday. mmmmm
Did you see the black 600? Very nice, except for the fugly orange.
Did the have the huge scooter out front again? The thing's like a (not very) minature gullwing or something. It's huge.

A tank will go round a corner better than the TL, mind you the TL squash's more things than a tank being as big n heavy as one, but i had a K2 600 b4 the TL, funnily enough the very 600 MR now has in his possesion, small crazy world it is.

well blue is a girls colour FF
TS next time i am in auckland, or you out on a ride i am, i let you take my bike for a quick spin so you get the feel for it.
I really wanted the k4 750 but didn't like the colour scheme as much, reason i went for the 600, but thats not hard to fix in a few years, drop the 750 motor in to and go sleeper style

TS and I were speaking about this yesterday. T44 a mite big - too much lag.
T3 would be better - you would also want a big fuck off blow off valve on it to scare the shit out of boy racers on queen street.
Imagine it at the lights with some wanker in an Evo2 and you on a turbo bike.
Lights green then.....wharrrrrrrrrrrrpppppppp....pshhhhhhhhhhhh - all on one wheel!!!! Fuck that would funny to see!

Funny oh yes indeed, lag would be a shitter on a bike, often dabbled in the thought of a nos kit for the TL, not to fussed on the speed thing of it, but more so the looks on boy racers faces when you roll up next to them and they're like ohhhh fast bike, until there gaze sits on the blue nos bottle mounted by the seat hump :shit: :lol:

Hey Gav, :banana:
I just bought that blue sv1000s you were looking at (well, one of them). Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeehaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa. Sportzone are a pretty cool outfit. They rang me yesterday saying that the sv had dropped in price - they offered me a credit at the shop. That's more than i've heard other outfits will do sometimes.
I've currently only clocked about 380km - i note the dealer and the manual recommend not holding constant revs for any period... but that sorta prevents me from heading anywhere too far outta town unless i'm rolling on and off constantly - do i seriously have to do this for the first 800km????
Cheers

oooerrrrr. Don't drop to their level man! Purposely loud blow off valves are like an audible 'wanker coming' siren. I understand why the valve is needed but to purposely get a loud one is just utter wankery IMHO.

Should that read; Be in shitloads of debt and ride in style? :niceone:
Ya don't get in shitloads of debt for just anything eh?
[ Yep, I'm a closet TL fancier, but not yet in my budget to actually own one]
