That's the nicest bike in that picture.

Suzuki 600 is only a junior squid ride. The 1000 is for full on squids.

Mmmhm, Possibly a downgrade.

Nevertheless, congrats on the new ride.

choneofakind · January 28th, 2013, 07:29 PM

I'm not usually fond of GSXR's. If I were to get one, that's the generation and color I want. Great looking bike yo!!

Have fun and keep the shiny side up.

NDspd · January 28th, 2013, 08:14 PM

haha its amazing, like im not gunna lie it does scare me :L especially as im not used to it yet plus it had new tires on so i've only just been able to start riding it and having a bit more fun with it..

But seriously its amazing, it is restricted due to my license but that comes off september, i know people will say 'oh why didnt you keep the ninja thats stupid' but i aim to go on tour soon and i want the bike of my dreams before i go so thats why i got it whilst its restricted but even with a restriction it still accelerates so much better than the ninja which is the main thing i wanted.

It is alot heavyer than the ninja though so it can catch you out at slow speeds really easy i've felt that it could have tipped a couple of times but i delt with it correctly so it didnt luckily but i can imagine if you didnt expect it, it will catch you out..

but all in all i didnt find it that much of an issue getting on 600, maybe because its restricted? but i have ridden a unrestricted 500 and tbh its not all that differenet just top end and a bit of acceleration..

i love it though

What's it restricted to? Please don't tell me 33hp.

Gotta love America. You can be 16 years old with a motorcycle permit, and if you've got the money you can go buy yourself a busa, or ZX-14, or 800 lb cruiser that makes 100 lb/ft of torque.

Haha afraid so.. 33 is the limit will take the restrictor out once I'm used to what I've got.

No way! Moving to American haha the laws here have justbeen changed and it's ridiculous, as of now you'd have to go through several tests and wait till your 24 before you can get over 500cc i think.. don't quote me on it but I know it's gunna put a lot of people off biking which is a shame

ninjamunky85 · February 15th, 2013, 06:10 AM

Laws restricting power for new riders seem like a good idea on paper, but it just doesn't make sense in real life.

Get ready for when you take off that limiter, it's gonna be a whole new world when you open the throttle unrestricted.

Happy riding.
