105, that's very cheap. I rode 40 miles to shop, service and breakfast and 50 miles back. Lower back aching and going into shoulder blades. Once a bad back, always a bad back. Rung in sick Friday and Saturday.

They had a gsxs 1000 in shop, looked very nice. Got 2 mt type headlights on top of each other. Definitely a bike to consider. No pic's.

It's like an automatic choke on the fuel injection, mine literally starts at a touch of the button.
I don't like the looks of the new 1000, it's too KTMish, all straight lines, I prefer the teapot looks of mine.

I thought the auto start is the feature that means you just press the starter once and let go, rather than holding it down until the bike fires. Was first introduced on the current SV650.
I don't know why I know that.

Yeah, mine does that. Just lightly touch the starter and it whirrs into life.Le_Fromage_Grande wrote: βThu Nov 18, 2021 6:09 pmIt's like an automatic choke on the fuel injection, mine literally starts at a touch of the button.

Re: Tracer out...MT09 in. 😁👍
When I was a nipper every other morning in winter (every other day was my brothers job) I'd have to pop my Dad's black cab bonnet open and spray that into the air intake so the bastard would start and we could go to school.
