Two Wheeled Passion

[Commando]

Right there with you, Bimati. Ducks are the only way to fly. I'm somewhat low on lira these days so the 1098 will have to wait. My '97 916 is still a much better bike than I am rider so I think I'll keep her around for another twenty years or so. Besides, the styling is ageless and I can't think of any other bike that gets my juices flowing quite so well. When my wrists cramp, I've got a '92 Paso for working out the kinks. The rounded fairing that blends into a rather angular tail section takes some getting used to, but the sharp handling and mellow thunder are atributes that can't be beat.

I never had a problem with the 999's looks, but I was in the minority it would seem. The 1098 solves most of the former's styling quirks. The horizontally opposed headlights do look as if a Triumph might have snuck into the barn prior to gestation, but they are a vast improvement. So to are the twin underseat mufflers. The 999's single slab-sided affair had more than a little Morgan-Tec influence. Hot stuff on a VX but a bit austere hanging under a Duck's tailfeathers!

A little out of my price range... I ride a '02 GSXR 600, Black/Yellow.

I would still like to be a style biter and get a 'Busa motor unit like OK Highway Patrol for work. :_drool:

Can't wait to try it!



SUZUKI BKING.

Oh, the '97 916. Last year of hand assembly before Americans bought the company.

PBkid: My deposit is down at Fay Myers. They are at Arapahoe and I-25 in Denver and they always have the best bikes on the floor like the $40,000 MV Agusta Tamburini and plenty of Ducs...stop by and drool sometime. faymyers.com.

I do enjoy the middle finger styling of the new B-King (although your picture didn't load for me). Every time I hear the name, I picture that plastic headed Burger King mascot stunting on it.

The only part of the 999 I grew to like was the breadbox exhaust....I guess I'm in the minority there.

Having owned all of the "nutter" bikes, I settled on the original '97 TL1000s (yep, the one that was recalled for spitting so many people off).

I think I have a problem, 'cause that's just not enough anymore. I need more horses, updated suspension components etc. I'm a closet adrelaline junky I guess.

Here's one of the good 'ol days: CBR600F2

This is my 07 Suzuki V-Strom DL650

I am currently riding the monster 1985 Suzuki GS300L. Let me tell you, this thing is a SCREAMER. Kidding. It's my first bike, and it's been chopped and stripped enough to make it look like a little cafe racer. It's not much but I like it, and like the VX, everyone is always asking what it is.
