Nope, I'm going to go pick it up at the weekend. Have a good look around it in my own time at their premises, make sure every thing is correct before doing the cash transfer and hitting the open road.
If I'm ever feeling flush and find some decent panels and a tank, I'll take all the original stuff off, put it in the loft and get the spare stuff painted up in the M model Blue and White.
But it'll probably never happen, the pink is growing on me
Thats a cracking looking motorbike, I do like a motorbike with twin tail pipes.
"Of all the stories you told me, which ones were true and which ones weren't?"
"My dear Doctor, they're all true."
"Even the lies?"
"Especially the lies."

That’s stunning.
Was never a huge Suzuki fan to be honest but as a kid my dream bike was the RGV250 in the Pepsi paint work

That's an odd photo, the blue and white M was actually lighter than that, the bit that looks black in the photo was a dark blue.

That's scarily like the one I rode.
That's a Septic one, you can tell from the reflectors.
The one my mate had didn't have the reflectors, it was a UK bike, but it was those colours with the Vance and Hines, it was fucking loud, fucking quick and fucking hard work on a twisty road as all it wanted to do was keep going straight.
4 into 1 works fine on them, the engines big and reasonably softly tuned (about 140bhp), mates one certainly didn't have any flat spots or lack of mid range.
Have a word with Chris at Grumpy 1260, he might have a Moto Werks or Vance and Hines in stock, he doesn't advertise much.
My first experience of a GSXR1100 was many moons ago when I had my R90S beemer. We both hit the throttle coming out of a roundabout and the Suzook very quickly became considerably smaller. It sounded to me at the time he didn't even bother to change out of top gear. Grunty bikes. A J model I think.

Hindle exhausts are superb btw, thin stainless steel, the front pipes are lighter than titanium, you can get Hindle in the UK but I can't remember who from, possibly PDQ
