1979 Suzuki RL 250

Owner: Paul Draper,
Nottingham, England

Mods: Nonstandard (Preston Petty) rear mudguard, everything
else standard

Comments: At some time it has been a 325, but is now standard
again to 250. I have modified the clutch lever at the crankcase
to make it a bit lighter to pull, but otherwise the bike is
completely standard. (OK, brake levers etc. may be not standard,
but they break...) I love the bike. I had some troubles with
carburation because it had been stood for many years, but it's
now clean and free-revving. There's enough power to uproot trees
it feels like .. ;) It's a little slow to turn, and is quite
heavy compared to newer bikes, but is very stable and forgiving
of a novice rider. I haven't competed in trials for many years,
about 20, so it's a great bike to start back again.

2002 Suzuki GSX 1400

Owner: Mainer Bergessen,
Sandefjord Norway

Purchase date: July 2002

Mods: Givi case kit

Comments: Compared to my earlier bikes, Suzuki T500J (1972)
and Honda CX500 (1983), the GSX1400 feels like a dream come true.
The bike handles excellent even with the Givi saddle bags mounted,
and my wife likes the Givi kit since the top case acts like a
support to her back. I have covered 7,000 km with my GSX1400 without
any problems, except with the original Bridgestone BT020 tires.
I had to replace the rear tire after 6,500 km due to a puncture
(almost worn out by then). I hope to get more mileage out of the
Avon Azaro I replaced it with. The original front tire caused
vibrations since new, after replacing it with a Michelin Pilot
Road the problem disappeared. I cannot recommend the BT020 tires
to my friends.

1994
Suzuki GSX 1100 G

Owner: Hans-Ove Görtz, Gustavsberg Sweden

Comments: I sold my GSF400 Bandit in '94 and bought this
GSX1100G. I enjoyed it very much for four years and had plans
to add a full fairing. Unfortunately it was stolen in '98. When
the police found it it was in a miserable shape after been ridden
on a dirt track. The insurance company scrapped it. I ride a
Kawasaki GTR1000 now.

1979
Suzuki GS 750 E

Owner: Dave Weiser, Lancaster Pa USA

Comments: It's pretty
much standard except for the 4-1 exhaust and new jets. The bike
has 18,000 miles and runs great. I haven't had the bike since
new, but I believe it still has the factory paint and pin striping.
The great thing about this bike is that it'll turn on the juice
when I want it to, or it's a comfortable bike for a 23 hour
ride.
Note: the GSX750E was called GS750E only in the USA/Canada.

2002
Suzuki GSX 1400, George

Owner: Peter Crane, Queensland Australia

Purchased: March 2002

Comments: When I bought the GSX I ditched the standard exhaust
for the Yoshi system for additional acceleration. Attached is
a photo of George the GSX in September last. I have recently put
a Ventura rack and blue pack on for additional carrying capacity.
The output of the GSX is huge. George does 100 kph at 3000 rpm
and 200 kph at 6 000 rpm and after that I was concentrating on
the road rather then the instruments.

2002 Suzuki GSX 1400, Big Bull

Owner: Willem de Ruyter, Rotterdam Holland

Mods: M Design top fairing and headlights, Bike and Design huggers,
Ermax tail guard, Lucas Superbike bars, Nissin Complete Race brake
and clutch, Goodridge Stainless brake lines, Probolt blue engine
bolts, Laser Hotcam 4-1 exhaust system, K&N air filter, Goodridge
blue banjo bolt, Bike and Design belly pan, M Design Impact protection
dampers, Booster carbon mirrors, Booster mini indicators

Comments: I want the motorcycle to have lots of torque,
I'm not that interested in the top speed. I am 47 years old and
have owned many bikes, the latest was a Yamaha XJR1200. The GSX1400
uses up-to-date technology and comfortable. I'm a truck driver,
196 cm long and weigh 100 kg, my 'Big Bull' is The Bike for me.
In 2002 I won a price from Suzuki Holland (see the picture) with
my GSX1400, I'm hoping to win another price this year. There's
about 140 Suzuki GSX1400 riders in Holland.
Here's more Suzuki GSX1400 info.

Here's links to the manufacturers of the bits and parts mounted on Willem's
Big Bull.
