Hello everyone, I am a new member and back to biking, I am buying a 2003 Suzuki GSX 1400 which has been very well looked after with only 15K miles.
It looks amazing with standard pipes, I'll probably store it during winter but having said that once I get it home I'll be keen to go out for a ride on it.
Cheers everyone and safe riding. Johnny

I think I will welcome you with a Mad Max line, "Johnny the Boys' done it again, with a scrubber this time".
Congratulations on owning the last old school muscle bike available.
May the sun be warm & shining and your roads be smooth & winding.

Hopefully you'll get a few good days to enjoy your new bike, you'll never regret buying it  :boogie2:

All the best ... Barry

Quote from: JohnnyQ on Saturday, 21 October  2023, 05:29 AMMay I just ask, I have been away from biking for some time, many of my non biking friends say and putting it politely saying I'm not the right age to get back into biking as I'm 68yrs old. I last rode a gs1000 twenty yrs ago. I feel that I'm fine for biking. I have a chance of a beautiful 2003 GSX 1400 in prestige condition with low mileage 16k miles for £5000. Comments please.
same age as I am - go for it - enjoy life  :)
