28th Febuary - Wet, Cold, Blowing like a barsteward. But you could not wipe the smile from my face even if you had

me with a ten foot pole..

Reason.........My new steed arrived...

So it was off to the shop to see it uncrated.

Thanks to Pete from WMC for taking the time out to do this. Was just like christmas.

Gotta like the way they are packed up and transported nowadays.

Some pics included. Only took the boxing off, and a layer of wrap. Rest of it is being done by the lads in the workshop on Monday....

Sorry about the quality of the photo's is only a rubbish digital camera, with a mostly flat battery.....

Is it true that it weighs 241kg?

Seems like a rather lot for a 650.

Anyway, awesome bike.
(Suzuki NZ's new website is heaps better as well)

Edit:
Ah, I just read, the other weights are all dry weights while this one was curb weight. Consistency?

**Bonez** · 28th February 2009, 17:29

Good one. Enjoy!

**Fatjim** · 28th February 2009, 17:38

Make sure Pete doesn't ride the sucker. Enjoy.

**Nasty** · 28th February 2009, 17:48

Congrats .. can't wait to see it ... when you coming over for a ride?

**Trudes** · 28th February 2009, 18:02

Can't get much newer than that eh? Wicked, congrats!!

**Cosmo** · 28th February 2009, 18:08

You must be a very wise and intelligent man to get a bike like that.

Ooh! Nice!
Wottizzit? A Kawasuckme?

No wait - it's not Kermit Green - must be a Honda then. Hope you've taken your anti-gheyness tablets then (and remember - they're suppositories; DON'T swallow them!

)

I like the special steel safety bar thingos - they should stop it falling over and like that there. Might make lanesplitting problematic though...
