Not seen one in this colour before.

Neither had I thankfully ... until now that is  :lol:

Not to my taste, but each to their own.

All the best ... Barry

Looks like it's a custom job. I've always loved the old skool "SUZUKI" individual matal raised font on the tank pre 2005 and only on Blue and Silver tanks.. IIRC.

Although not to Barry's taste lol... I don't mind it!

I'd lose some chav bling off it & get rid of the seat, the colour looks good to me though.

I think it looks ok, something different from the norm.

I like it.  Just thinking, wouldn't the Red be faster than a Blue & White?  Red is always faster, Ferrari etc.   Obviously wouldn't be able to keep up with a Black, but gotta be faster than the ole B/W. :popcorn:  :stir:

I liked the colour but not the other bling!
There is a Blue & White one I see every so often that is SOOOO over the top with bling and chrome (Even a blue screen). If I get chance I will photo it..
Its so over the top it really is tasteless!!
I have a gift for putting my foot in it.. So I'm hoping the owner of the bling machine isnt on here.. :whistling:

Apart from the screen I like it, it's been very well looked after.

Often thought of 14 same colours as GS1000 and GSX1100 i had, black with blue graphics. Id love to see a photo shop of 14 in those, i dont know how or i would.not sure theyd suit but those other two looked real good.
