So here I am once more.....

[Rynglieder]

It is good to see so many familiar names here from the old .org although I have not met many of you personally. Some of you may remember me â€" although there were not that many posts they did have a lot of words in them

I’ve been hanging back for a bit to see what develops, perhaps out of some sort of loyalty to the old site but this forum seems to have achieved critical mass and is currently the one and only place to be for news, views and help. I hope I can contribute in some small way.

For those that don’t know me I have owned my GSX1400K3 from new, purchased in September 2003. I’ve clocked about 36,000 miles on it (it has to compete with other bikes for my attentions) and a lot of those miles have been done on the continent.

Also in the garage are a 1983 Z1300 and a 2009 Z1000. Oh, and now something else but I’ll post separately about that

Stay safe and long live the GSX1400 community.

Welcome to the forum Rynglider, I remember when the Z1300 fist came out, have you had it from new?

I'm going to let you off the hook as I have only the 14 so it gets all my attention. Mines a K7 with 104,000 kms on it.  Over 40K of those are mine in the last 4 and a bit years.

P.S. Your other bikes?  Nice!

Hi Rynglieder, great to have you aboard. I too enjoyed your trip reports & pics. Loved your Garmin battle!
The GTR looks fab, you & Stoli will be besties then.

Before anyone asks... no there won't be a Kawasaki 1400 sub-forum...

Welcome to the forum Rynglider, I remember when the Z1300 fist came out, have you had it from new?

Yes, back in 1983 the wife said that as it would be the last new bike I would have (WRONG!), I may as well go to the top of the range.

33 years on it has survived the mortgage and kids although I have had to throw a bit of money at it over the last couple of years.

No problem, (sorry about the external link but it is quicker than adding them to my posts until I get used to it).
