Greetings from UK

Yeah a few people have said that about the seat & had them modified. If you do, keep the original cover even if it's not used as they are getting expensive (they tend to split when old). Personally I'm happy with mine, I just recovered it the other year when it split, but I'm not as tall as you.

Indeed @hooli

Bar the Max Torque cans, Puig front screen and Beowulf radiator guard she is very much factory standard.

Talking about mods, I spoke to a technician and asked him what he'd do to the bike if it was his.

He said absolutely nothing. Not even braided brake lines when I asked him about it.

Only issue is the seat could be slightly more bolstered near the front? I'm 6'4 and the seat seems to angle me ever so slightly towards the tank.

I'm just about the same height and had my seat rebuilt 2" higher and flatter to get around that problem.

Excellent. I'll see if there are any decent upholsterers in the south.

I can tell that that Koala loves the black paint on the 1400.....

[Hooli]

Why do they call that place the Giant Koala?

Why do they call that place the Giant Koala?   

Cos they wouldn't build a Wombat?

If I remember correctly, the unkind moniker for it is: The Big Poo!   

That picture was from my fly and ride home from collecting the GSX1400, and discovering just what a true "Gentleman's Express" it was.

Is Queensland the Ozzy version of Texas then?

Not really Hooli, just the best place to live.

[GSXKING]

Texas fits in to Queensland 5 times. Texans hate that when you point it out.
