hi everyone.

[hard road]

just picked up a K5 1400, wanted one for ages but finally got myself one. used to work on them at a suzuki dealer i worked at but never had enough cash to buy one    went for a black one as i like my bikes black

Gidday mate, welcome aboard!  Great colour choice too.  (Gotta get in quick before the B&W brigade turn up) . . .    They're always last to arrive! 

[Hooli]

Black ones have to look good as they are that much slower everyone sees them for longer

Welcome mate, gotta start slow I guess...

[Tony Nitrous]

Welcome to the forum hard road.  I used to think black was the only colour for a bike until I found a bike I wanted that didn't come in black.  Where are you?

[hard road]

thanks for the welcome guys     I thought their might be the colour abuse    i had a lot of stick for having a BROWN 1200 bandit   
my name it Tony by the way and I live on the west coast of Cumbria. yeah the bike is clean for an 18 year old and only 30,500 miles on it. I tend to go through a lot of bikes but I want to keep the 1400, im 60 next month so this bike will be a keeper.
ive just sold my lovely 1980 GSX1100 ET with a few upgrades to buy the 1400, a sad moment    but needs must.
the bike under the cover by the way is a 1979 XS1100.
