Nunes

Hello everyone
Francisco, 48 years old, from Portugal.
I just bought a 2002 GSX 1400.
I joined the forum because I'm looking for information and knowledge about this model.
I've had many motorcycles but despite liking this type of bike I've never bought one. Here in Portugal not many units have been sold nor is it very common to see them.I hope to find here the answers to the questions that will certainly arise.

I need to go somewhere I've not been but won't know until I get there!

Welcome Nunes. It's a good place for information and not a bad bunch of blokes either. Enjoy your new ride  :cheers:
Another great day on the right side of the grass.😎

Welcome Nunes/Francisco. You have bought a great bike...my soul fills with joy every time I ride it.
There's always room in the world for a bit more tolerance and kindness.

Welcome mate, some great roads around Portugal and Spain.  I'm sure we have or had another member from Portugal a while back.

Great to have you along
I try to take one day at a time, however sometimes several days catch up with me at once.

Haven´t been active on the forum for some weeks, and on the bike too. Cause it got hit and now I still waiting on some parts. I didn´t fall, just the right side footpeg broke and bent the bracket support, That little support that belongs to the frame. Still have to straighten it. It hit the exhaust and I´m also waiting for a new one. Damn astonished as Suzuki still sells new exhasuts, mine´s a K5.  Not my fault so no savings.
By the way, any idea on how to straighten the support ? I spoke with the oficial dealer and their idea was same as mine. Maybe you guys will have a different one.

Hi,

I've been to Portugal - great place.

I have vague memories of over-indulging in certain establishments along the Porto riverfront...   :rofl3:

...and then the Winged Hussars arrived.

The foot peg bracket is quite solid and can be manipulated very slowly and carefully please.

I'm interested to know more about how you got hit. 🙄
