I saw a GSX1400 sold at Team Moto Virginia (Brisbane)

[gsxbarmy]

my bike 07 K7. FE were last model? were FE sold world wide?

Suzuki called the K5, K6 and K7 "Final Editions", the only difference across all of them was the paintwork grog. Sold in all markets that the GSX1400 was sold in to the best of my knowledge.

Due to European emission laws, 2007 was the last year that Suzuki imported and sold the GSX1400 in the UK and Europe marketplace. However, it was able to continue importing and selling the model to the Australian and New Zealand market and brought out a "final final edition" with special paintwork and decals for these markets to signify the last year of GSX1400 production and sales anywhere in the world.
Designated the GSX1400 Special Edition 2008, the model featured exclusive paintwork and decals on the tank, side panels, tailpiece and front fender, together with the cam ends on the engine blacked out and dark blue wheels.

So K5/6/7 - "Final Edition". K8 - "final final edition" but termed "Special Edition".

Yeah. Officially the "Special Edition", unofficially the true "Final Edition" but don't tell the Pom's that, they think their earlier not-so-Final-Editions are real and get excited because they get a sticker....   

[gsxbarmy]

You are such a tease Mr Nitrous 

(and those stickers are worth a lot of money on eBay  )

[Andre]

It's all in the sticker. Maybe I should get a "Final Edition" sticker for my K2. 

[Tony Nitrous]

We often do the final finish on brand new cars coming into Australia. Sometimes this may mean adding a badge that only this country or a certain model gets. We have a lot of badges in stock.


Recently as we left work I was following a workmate in his old Toyota Corolla.

On the boot it said....

[seth]

So are ours i never fitted the stickers .

[Daytona]

It just so happens that I've got two of the final edition stickers in my docs folder ,I paid £20 each for them ,but I'm hangin on to them cos they will be worth about £4 grand each in a couple of years,,,,gulp,

[owen426]

Wow I was unaware about the importance of the sticker! It's well known that stickers add horsepower, so this sticker must make the bike really fast.

Is a black bike with a final edition sticker faster than a blue n white bike?

Now you're being silly, you know that can't be 

[seth]

I'm mid stripping the blue and white bike to do major upgrades on it .
I'm thinking of fitting all the bodywork on my red/black bike so it's faster .
