Found this table on how many GSX1400's are left in the UK. Just for clarification taking Year 2001 there are 213 on the road, 155 off the road, giving a total of 368 bikes with 8 per month up for sale. Not sure how accurate it is but slightly interesting non the less:
POPULARITY & HOW MANY LEFT
Year On The Road Off The Road Total For Sale
2001 213 155 368 8 / month
2002 574 413 987 120 / month
2003 504 374 878 190 / month
2004 372 199 571 31 / month
2005 322 160 482 62 / month
2006 369 187 556 67 / month
2007 325 177 502 83 / month
2008 148 73 221 32 / month
Thats really good Phill. Id like to know how many in Oz. Ive got some spare time to search, not sure where to start but will try.
By my reckoning that makes my Special Edition the rarest model available and being blue and White makes it the fastest available.
No way mate the stripes are too thin :stir: :stir: :stir:
Great to see this kind of data, but can`t help wondering about the criteria used?
To illustrate my point, bearing in mind 2001 was the first year the `14 was available in the UK, according to these figures there seems to be an unrealistically high number classified as `off the road`. Thats a whopping 72% by my reckoning.....
.....so, back to my point - were 72% still in showrooms; SORNED; smashed up, or what?
In fact the `off the road` numbers look completely unrealistic for every year. Which begs the question, what does that statement actually indicate I wonder?
Just asking....... :whistling:
Those figures are probably showing how many 2001 bikes are currently SORN off the road.
If it's from 'how many left' then it's probably miles out, last time I looked at it a search for K2 gave different results to k2 as an example.
I wonder if there are any new and unregistered bikes lurking anywhere, gota be something somewhere?
So with the current poll of who owns which year of bike I looked back at this table which when added up gives a figure of 4,565 bikes either on the road or sorned.
I also found another site that seems to tally up that number:

If there are in fact circa 4,500 GSX1400 owners still out there in the U.K. it seems to me not too many of them are using this forum!
Theres a couple on the other side of the planet, and most are on this forum i think
There will also be quite a few on the facefuck forum as well.

That is a lot busier, but most of the groups are still at the 'how do I change the bars?' stage of technical discussions.
I've found the same with the facebook groups as
@Hooli has
Same old questions a lot of folk who repeating stuff they have heard that's not totally right .
I try to guide folk here as what we have is not only available to search it's free and downloadable .
To many keyboard warriors on Facebook.
I've given up answering a lot of the questions on the FB groups as the same question was asked the day before, or I know people will argue & tell me I'm wrong when I know exactly how that bit works or that job goes.
Ive got 0 time for FF
