They have new bikes!!!!

But no Gladius

Meet the 2012's

nickjpass · October 29th, 2011, 07:53 PM

Yeah I know...but I want to see new colors and other stuff, and looks like they did major changes, but, really they barely changed anything

Jay72 · October 29th, 2011, 07:58 PM

Too bad little fella, I really liked the Galadius..Kind of like the Street Triple.

nickjpass · October 29th, 2011, 08:02 PM

I like how the Gladius looks...I wish they brought the euro versions here. They have red, or blue with blue rims!!

The Gladius also has a cooler name, and is two thousand dollars cheaper!! That's a lot of farkles...

I really have to say that I am very surprised that suzuki or yamaha have not jumped on that bandwagon of Kawi and Honda with the 250 market, I think it would be awesome to see some more competition. And nick I have to tell you I got out on my second ride on my brand new ninja today...man is it ever FUN!! And I let it rev a bit more than 5000 rpm's and once it gets up there it goes pretty damn good...Just trying to give you as much hope or help or whatever you want to call it until you are able to get your bike, as I am much older than you but I was doing exactly what you are doing now for months before I bought my bike.

I really liked the 2011 black/white GSXR600, it was like a milky white. They got rid of it. assholes

But they have yellow 750

.

Eww... Hayabusa still looks like sh*t.

sombo · October 30th, 2011, 07:45 AM

Looks like they also dropped the GSX650F from their line up. I kinda liked that bike and wanted to try it out to see if it would go up on my list of possible upgrades.

What major changes? I skimmed through it and the gsx-r's seem the same as te 2011's or did I miss something?

blink · October 30th, 2011, 01:21 PM

aahh the gxxrs are nice but a bit too new tech.. i prefer older bikes

i.e under 2007 ninja 600's/636 rather than 2007+ 600;s

"A" · October 30th, 2011, 06:24 PM

I had a Gladius, rode it for 7k mi. and sold it.. liked it much better than the FI version of SV650. Probably the easiest middleweight to ride for beginners, with low seatheight, easy to handle at most sane speeds, stock tires are great for grip. Too bad Suzuki's marketing on the bike was so poor, even the name is not very attractive; would have sold better if it was just SFV650.

nickjpass · October 30th, 2011, 06:28 PM

I love the name, because I know what it means!! I was considering the Gladius. But everyone told me to start with a 250, so here I am posting on this forum
