    Thanks! I can't wait to get all the registration and insurance squared away so I can hit the streets! (Not literally though, I hope!)

    93 or 95? That brings back memories just the same, I had a 94 750. Blue and white though (they are faster, of course).....I wish I still had it. It was a slick bike, lots heavier than the new ones but it was great.

    Congrats

    It's a '93. I have a feeling the purple and pink will haul just as much ass as the blue and white though. I'm upgrading from a '92 GS500, and it definitely is much heavier and more powerful than what I'm used to.

    439 dry...but it's rugged as hell. I was gonna mention steering damper, but I see it has one. Sweet.

    In a few years you'll have to continue your stay on the darkside and upgrade to a newer gixxer 6 or 750

    Yeah, I like Suzuki's, they are all I've ever owned. Hopefully in a couple years once I've paid off my car I'll be able to buy something else.

    I will, I promise! *pinky swears*

    Yup, it was great! I got onto 495 and was cruising along, and it seemed like the bike lost it's pep. I figured it was low on fuel so I pulled off the highway and gased up. After that it was smooth sailing! I did as you instructed and left the choke open a bit, and right before I got on the highway I closed it all the way. No problems at all!

    I KNEW it was Greg's bike! I had one just like back in '93. Bought it off the showroom floor as the last new bike I ever purchased.

    It's great so far, I had a blast on the ride home! It's definitely very easy to go fast on that bike!

    Thanks, I thought so too. My Dad was telling me that if I didn't buy it, he was seriously considering it.
