Suzuki riders...

Any Suzie riders in da house?

CBRVFR · 12-18-2006, 11:15 PM

Gots me an SV that is the most fun thing I've ever ridden on the track. You?

<<<<<<<<<<<<

Now with unpainted bodywork.. classy, eh?

GhostRider · 12-18-2006, 11:20 PM

I got a GSXR1000K4 and I'm looooving it. It's all tucked away for the winter.

I've ridden twins since for the longest time until I got my 954 in 2002, then I got hooked on the power...hehe...

My friend has an SV, I heard the stock suspension needs tweaking (or replacing). Is that true?

Yeah, it's shockingly "plush." First year I had it resprung and used heavier and more oil. Last year, I swapped the front end off a '99 gsxr 750. It's a very nice upgrade, and the brakes are now quite substantial.. 6 pot tokicos on 330 mm disks.

That and an Ohlins shock and a re-jet kit for the Yosh full system, woodcraft rearsets. -1 gearing up front, slicks, and a few minor mods has made me a bit of a pest on the track for some of my literbike buddies.

Maybe the cam swap this winter ( using cams from the newer generation SV) and my planned excursion to Kevin Schwantz Suzuli school in May will really piss 'em off.

I loved the power of my 954, but I was never going to learn anything on it.. way too much bike for my brain.

No, that makes you a poser.

CBRVFR · 12-19-2006, 05:29 PM

..or a future Suzuki owner. The Hondagals were quite impressed with the GSXR6's

I don't know if that will entail a legal name change..

No, it won't, because even if I do get a Suk, I'll still have the Honda. And the Ducati. You know, I'm a HondaGal TOO.

Haha, I hear that. I always thought if I got a track only 600, it'd be the Honda. Then I rode the Gix. To be fair, I haven't ridden the 600rr. I'd like to, so I can see which one I really like. Just sitting on them, though, the Suk does seem to fit me better.

Scrat · 12-19-2006, 07:07 PM

As you all saw in the New guy section, (Look there for more Pics)
01 750 for Track (avaitar shows me at Streets of Willow, in Ca)
Street bike 05 GIX 1K.

Had an 04 1k Ghost....Until some FCUK heads stole it...
It's amazing what 988cc to 998cc's will do... Good Lord..

There's no reason to discriminate by manufacturer anymore Gal. This new site is agnostic.

What does an agnostic dyslexic insomniac do?

Yup, so now I feel compelled to own one of each marque. LOL.

tigerblade · 12-22-2006, 05:22 PM

2003 SV650S

Full system M4 exhaust
Woodcraft rearsets
Hotbodies (hey, it worked okay) bodywork
Scotts (again, it worked fine) steering damper
Forks resprung and cartridge emulators installed by Lithium Motorsports
Penske double-clicker shock
Vesrah brake pads
Galfer steel-braided lines
That's about it. Put gas in it and go!

bwhip · 12-22-2006, 06:51 PM

My Suzuki, a photo of which is in the link below in my signature, is one of the most fun bikes I've ever ridden. Cheap, forgiving, and fun, it's just an awesome play bike. If I get more serious about supermoto, I'd probably upgrade, but for now it's just a hoot to zip around on.
