GSX1400 Owners .org

Hey Guys - List all your 1400s by year that you presently own.

We have 2 k6's and a k5 but it wount let me do that so did a k5,k6 &k7

Same, I have 2 x K6's.  You can't tick 2006 twice so I've done a Seth & ticked 2006 & 2007.  :imrgreen:

K7fe (the only one I wanna own). :riding:

I own just one totally awesome and outstandingly beautiful Suzuki GSX1400 registered in 2001. Further to that, I should also mention it is furnished in the widely accepted best colour scheme of blue and white. I shall also add being blue and white ensures my bike is therefore one of the fastest and best handling of all standard 1400's. 😍😍😍😍😍😍

1 fast bike 09/2001 build plated.  :stir: :stir: :stir:

Are 2002/2004 a bit rarer? None ticked, just wondering. C,Mon fellas, 18 bikes from 1900 members?

Maybe the rest don't know what year they have . . .   or don't care.  :whistling:

2004 K4 do seem rarer to me, I just don't see many.

Seeing as K5 was when the main changes happened I wonder if lots of people held off buying a bike to get the new one? Then found out they'd been fooled as their bike had an exhaust pipe missing?

Bertha is a K3, registered in 04 so thats the box I've ticked.

Just realised, mine will be 20 years old in December  :onya:

Vin # 50

that's a pretty early one. Mines 12/03 vin #102

I think you lot got them before us, mine's the earliest I know over here #253 (I think without checking).

Well Hooli mine was registered on 08/09/2001 and last the last numbers of the VIN are 395. From many years of manufacturing experience I wouldn't one any earlier. They would of been treated as prototypes up to number 394 with most being sold off to the convicts as you accurately state. After building number 394 a full engineering and manufacturing assessment would of been completed. The very next bike (number 395) would obviously of been built to the most exacting and rigorous standards above all that proceeded it and all that followed it. 🤣😂🤣

Well that explains how my low mileage, mollycoddled pampered example has got so rough. They hadn't perfected the idea of painting stuff or putting grease where it was needed.

Exactly Mate. A mere 150k from a pre 394 bike and it's getting a little a little rough 🙄 Whereas my number 395 is still gliding along like new with in excess of 1,000,000 miles on it 🤗 Oops one of those commas should of been a decimal place 10,000.000 😍 Respect mate can't really believe how you and others rack up such mileages👊

I just use mine every day instead of the car, takes no effort at all really. It's only 10k a year average since I got it, we'll ignore the 40-50k on other bikes at the same time.

Coincidentally, on that same  production line, following  the rigorous  assessment and obvious improvements made to the entire line, suzuki was low on capital, and hence the following units were painted with one coat of shoe black and clocks made of rice paper, until enough units were sold to reestablish manufacture of the famous blue and white ones. Not sure, but this may also have coindided with a temporary  rubber seal shortage at the same factory.... :stir:

It got worse after that Eric, they sacked the bloke who fitted the LH exhaust & forgot to replace him.

2007 owners, always keep our secret. That 1600 motor with ST1 cams and huge throttle body sure made it nice. Shhh. 😂😎

Well if we're going to go that way,   "First there was dark" (Black if you will . . .)     "Then came the light" (B/W, obviously 2nd to the Black)     "For it is written!" . . .   :whistling: :stir: :happy1:

Careful Col, those Pulpits arent built like they used to be.

When exactly was Darkness created? Is Darkness a thing, or is it the same as nothingness?  :stir: :stir: :stir: @KiwiCol  :boogie:

The Darkness was formed in 2000 @GSXKING

God created the Earth
the first day - light was created.
not dark  :bugga:

Well,    being closer to Gods age than I Notty, I bow to your superior knowledge on scriptures, not on the interpretation though.   


I'd guess you knew Noah personally . . .    :whistling: :happy1:  :onya:

Sorry @Notty but your wrong
If you turn out the light it goes dark so that must have been there first .
Nothing faster than the speed of dark  :cheers:

Nothing existed until the first day - dark hadn't been invented !! @seth
"  the first day - light was created.GSX1400 Blue/White - the second day - the sky was created. the third day - dry land, seas, plants and trees were created. the fourth day - the Sun, Moon and stars were created.then the black 14 was an after thought  :bugga:

My 2001 was 945 the last 3 digits, and was regd. 11. June 2001. As I recall it was the first regd. in Europe. Maybe I am wrong, but I was very active on the old forum, and cant recall any earlier...

Black as an after thought mmmmmm. Maybe they ran out of Blue and White FAST paint  :rofl2: :rofl2: @KiwiCol @Notty

:stir: :stir: :stir: :stir:

Black paint is so slow that it took years to reach the production line.

:rofl2:  That's a ripper, first time I've seen that one!  Well done Hooli. :onya: :clapping:

Id like my bike all black except tank, will get there one day. Not sure where id fit in the paint debate when it happens. :laugh: :laugh:

The true story is actually that on the eighth day the allmighty one sat down with a rum and coke and looked what he had made. When he saw how he had fucked up making the woman he decided to make a motorcycle. It was a perfect one and a fast one....an all  blue GSX 1400. He went on making more and after a few more rum- cokes he got sloppy and started to make some with small faults. Instead of fixing them he gave them other colours, thats why there are blue and whites and so on.Some had so many faults that He named them Honda  and Yamaha, the ones that were a complete mess he called Harleys.

Almost correct on your scriptures there BbigMmac however the Allmighty definitely made the blue and white ones first and foremost above all others. I have it on very good authority that Adam used to race around the garden of Eden on a blue and white 14 with Eve hanging on the back.
For all you doubters and non believers suck it up, get over yourselves and convert to the religion of the Suzuki GSX1400 K2 Blue and White. The  Adonis and without doubt the most gorgeous of the immense, torque monster, brutally heavy weight Suzuki GSX1400 range😍

Having owned a B/W K2 for nearly 14 years I can confirm they aren't bad as a bike, not a patch on a proper old Triumph for class & presence though.  :stir:

Well Boiz and girlz WE are now up to 50 bikes on the site - good going!!
Cheers
Stan

Global, 50 out of 1900 members? Post up fellas.

One of those 2004's is mine.
I feel lonely.
