from Russia with love

[BaNZ]

Gdday, fine gentlemen.    Since it's welcomed here to introduce myself, here it is.

Riding since 2010. Exchanged CBR1100XX blindly for GSX1400 (I didn't know such bike exist) around 2016-2017. And it's very controversial motorcycle, I should say. However, it's my favorite. I done a lot to it and I'm not planning to get rid of it. ~60k kms on clock. Currently I own another couple of bikes, Yamaha FZS1000 and Honda CRM 250 mk3.

I have read this forum silently all this time, so I think I should say thanks and hello to seth, barmy, Hooli, northern, Vlad, Andre, Kiwicol, grog, you're really hardcore owners of this rig, guys.

Now I stepped out from silence, because... I realized, that I got questions I can't find answers for. Hope interesting ones, so I need your help, guys.

Pics of my ride attached.

G'day BaNZ nice intro 👍
I'd say welcome to the nuthouse but I'm sure you've been silently stalking the list of guys you mentioned lol 😂.

There can't be many GSX1400's in Russia ?

Afternoon BanZ.

I think we've got or had a member in Moscow before, no idea if they're near you or not as Russia is a big place.

There can't be many GSX1400's in Russia ?

Absolutely can't. Around 30 may be. I don't know precisely, but I think there was 4 of them around my area (1400km radius). Seen only one stock in white-and-blue paintjob with my own eyes.

I'm completely on the other side. Japan much closer to my place then Moscow. Like 10 times.)

Welcome to the fountain of 14 knowledge.

It seems odd welcoming you, due to international events, but hopefully your's will be a constructive and friendly addition to our family.  Whatever conflicts the world, bikers must stay united.

Looking forward to your post and pictures.

Welcome @BaNZ great to see an owner from Russia, as @Hooli says we did have some guys from Russia on this forum some years ago so its nice to see a current owner join (even if you have been a silent follower for a while LOL)
