Title: G'day from Darwin, Northern Territory (Aus)
Post by: Bigecca on Wednesday, 21 December 2022, 10:28 AM
G'day guys,

Here's my new to me 07,
Just picked it up in time for the start of the local rainy season....

I've wanted a 14 since I saw one parked out the front of work 15 years ago
This one came up cheap on Marketplace and I couldn't say no.

Just under 90K and she's a bit rough around the edges but I'll tidy her up over the next year or so, finances permitting.
Absolute beast of a bike, and I'm already getting compliments when stopped at the lights :)

 Gidday mate & welcome to the forum!   It does look pretty tidy already, but you're there so you know what you want to do with it. Hope you get a few rides in between the 'showers' .   :cheers:

Hi and welcome - I also just joined after picking up my brother in laws bike which has just over 4500km's on it (2003 model).  I think I will park up my Griso for a year and try and crack on some miles as quick as possible.  I like your colour scheme, mines the boring blue version.  If I feel brave I might break open a spray can and see if I can improve it.  Anyway, super bike and it seems like a good forum although looking through the threads, I think most of the contributors are nuts :rofl2: :rofl2:

G'day mate I just stumbled on your one and only post.
I guess you're busy tidying up your beloved GSX.
Any updates you'd like to share ?
