    Whooey, thanks for the clip mate! I'm stuck at work 500km's from the nearest decent bike and this cheered me up no end....I've just got to hide the embarrassing bulge in my overalls now.....

    Suzuki Fest bikes are american spec (E03) and there is no difference in spec between normal australian spec (E24). Not to confuse EO3 (USA spec) to E33 (California spec).

    If there is "no difference" then why is it a different spec. Regardless of this the point I made previously was "I insisted on an NZ spec bike for peace of mind and to ensure maximum performance. The last thing I wanted was a lemon, albeit still a great great bike, but just down on power compared to the local versions."

    The fact is when nobody can definitively tell you what the differences are, and when you know the fuel here is different to the US and Canada, I personally take comfort in knowing the bike I have is the correct spec for where I live and ride. Maybe it's no great difference, maybe it is, I have heard all too much from both sides of the fence so buying the local model takes any concerns away.

    Anyway, it's sold... and the purchaser is getting nothing less than a brilliant mint bike and at a very good price. Better than any stock Summerfest bike let alone a local market bike.

    Thanks to everyone else who expressed interest... but too late!

    Thanks Muzza on the interesting info on Suzuki Fest bikes being Canadian spec. Had no idea till now that they were any different - just thought it was a fantastic special!

    Pretty sure the petrol tank is smaller as well, 15.5l. I get around 150km round town riding before the reserve light starts flashing, bit more on open road trips, a lot less on the track.

    I use 91 and get a little bit of backfiring when closing the throttle from high revs, but it's not too bad. I tried 95 but the bike backfired on all up gear changes.
    Yours is canadian, Suzuki fest bikes are US spec. Us spec 750 has 16.5L fuel tank.

    Mmmm, maybe the local ones are the ones down on power...
