Updates on my site
March 2023


Here follows the list of the new or updated stuff on my site. There's always some gaps to fill, brochures to find, stories to tell. It's a never ending job. I hope you appreciate my efforts.

I'm still here... It's been over 20 years now since I started to fill my site with all kinds of Suzuki motorcycle stuff: specifications, photos, brochures, magazine ads... There wasn't any similar sites on the Internet back then – what I know of. I believe I'm still one of the largest, if not the largest size on the Internet including ALL Suzuki motorcycle models. I hope some people think it's also the best. I am trying...
.
Please notify me if you find any errors, problems on the website or uncorrect information about the motorcycle models. Any problems at all. I do read all the messages although I sometimes react slowly. It is an enormous task I've committed to, telling everything about every Suzuki motorcycle ever made. I will probably never get there, but I'm working on it...
.
Please keep on sending brochure scans to me! Don't make the scans too small. The bigger, the better! Here's the e-mail address:

March 15  I have started to refresh the Visitor's Suzuki pages, making the text larger so that the comments are a easier to read with modern devices. It will take me a while, there are 140 pages and I have to update the pages one by one. I started with the newest pages, today I have updated the Visitors' Suzuki pages 100140.
.
March 18  I have continued the tedious work of refreshing the Visitor's Suzuki pages. Now even the pages 6699 have larger font and are easier to read with modern machines. There's also large ”Previous page” and ”Next page” links on the facelifted pages. More pages will be updated whenever I can. It takes time.
.
March 19  All of the Visitor's Suzuki pages will be updated with larger font. Today I have refreshed pages 4365. This doesn't add any new information to the pages but will make them look a bit nicer and easier to read. New page: FA50 Susie brochures ('83 Japan)
.
March 20  It takes time, but I'm determined that I will refresh even the rest of the Visitor's Suzuki pages before I turn to other projects. The earlier pages, created around 20 years ago, demand more work and time. I want to make them look just like the more recent pages I made. I have managed to recreate the pages 3042 today. Also, the pages 112 are now updated (I don't know why I changed my mind and started over from page 1 instead). New page: Goose 350 model history (1991–2000) The Goose 250 model history (1992–1993) was also updated.
.
March 21  Refreshing the Visitor's Suzuki pages continues. I have now cleaned and updated the pages 1329. There's still same model specific pages to go through, I will do them later.
.
March 22  I believe I have now refeshed all of the 159 pages of pictures and comments the visitors of this site have sent to me. There are also a couple of pages with Visitors bikes that are not Suzuki. I must admit that I have forgot how many interesting bikes and opinions there are on the Visitor's Suzuki pages section. Most of the pages were created in the early 2000's. That was when you guys still sent me loads of photos, scans and information. I'm glad you did, you couldn't find much information of motorcycles on the Internet back then. I thought I'd change that with this site.
.
March 23  Updated pages: GZ125 Marauder brochures ('98 Germany), DS80 model history (more pictures and specs of the early models), DS80 brochures ('78 USA), DS100 brochures ('78 USA), DS185 brochures ('78 USA), DS80 magazine adverts ('78 USA).

Sometimes I get mail from people who complain that their favorite model is not on my site. In many cases they haven't even bothered to look properly or used the search engine. But there are still some models missing. I'm doing my best and will fill in the gaps as fast as I can. This is not my profession; I'm doing this in my spare time. I could use some help to be able to get more things done. Please send me pictures, brochures and specs – or complete model histories... Anything at all that can make the site more complete. Here's more info of how you can contact me.

One more thing: PLEASE visit the FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) pages before sending me questions about your bikes, manuals etc. I would love to help you all but I haven't got enough time or knowledge to do that — perhaps you can find an answer to your question on the FAQ pages?
