New to the GSX-S 1000, not to motorcycles.
Started on dirt bikes at 11 and road bikes at 23.
My first was a 1994 CBR600. A year later a 1994 GSXR 750, then married and bills and no bike again until 2006!! A 2006 CBR600 F4i. Couldn’t believe how much more power it had than the 1994 CBR600!
Knee surgery a year later and I still wanted to ride so I got the 2007 Bandit 1250S. Loved the motor but not the size of the bike.
Knee healed quicker than I thought it would so within 8 months I traded the Bandit for a leftover 2007 GSXR 750. Back to a nice light bike but missed the torque of the Bandit.
Come June 2011 I was between jobs so I sold the 750.
Didn’t realize it would be this long to get back on a bike. Just happened to be at the closest Suzuki dealer a couple weeks ago getting a part for my 2012 RMZ 450.
Walked over to the showroom and there sat 4 brand new, leftover 2016 GSXS 1000’s!!
They let me take one home this past Saturday for $7k out the door!!
Almost 300 miles on it now and it is the best bike I have ever owned! Almost as comfy as the Bandit, almost as light as the 750, almost the torque of the Bandit!! Love it!
