Hi All, new member here, been riding over 40years and grew up with the big muscle bikes of the day, just picked up a nice 08 registered gsx 14 with 14k on the clock, power commander, stage one yoshi cams and its a hoot to ride.I have just retired and looking forward to trips from manchester to scottish highlands on the bike.I also  have a KTM 1290 adventure but it doesnt make me smile as much as the 14 does.

Ayup Macca, apparently they are great fun with Yoshi cams. I've never tried one myself, but I did ride with one & it vanished up the road rather well in front of me. 14k isn't even run in for one of these either, so you've got a bike for life there.
I'm overdue a Scottish trip myself, there is some fantastic riding up there isn't there?

Hi Hooli, yes fantastic roads and scenery up there, i have freinds and family there and now i am retired i am selling up and moving there. getting off the ktm 1290 and on to the 14 thought would be a little bit tamer but not at all, i am well impressed with it and if we ever cross paths you are welcome to take it for a blast.

G'day Macca and welcome to the nuthouse.

So many questions. Pictures would be appreciated by the vouyers here.

I'm intrigued to know if you bought it modified ? Was it someone from this group etc.etc.?

[macca]

Hi gsxking, Thanks for the welcome, i bought the bike as it is from a guy called dean who lives about 45miles from me and he was the 6th owner and he bought it from a bike shop, the bike came with receipts and dyno chart for the work done. having a had 6 owners it may well have been previously owned by someone in this group. As for photos i would not know where to start sending photos i will have to wait till my bro calls round.
