Just picked her up a few weeks ago. Wanted to introduce myself and say hello. My name is Steve, and I am 51. Ex Moto X racer, Enduros, etc. Been riding 600 - 1000cc sport bikes off and on for 30 years.

I don't think we are talking about Smurfs?

Thanks for the welcome guys. So far I got a shade over 500 miles on her. I really like the way this thing pulls down low and in the mid range. Suzuki really got this motor set up well for the application. Yes, its a little sensitive on the transition from off throttle to back on, and this forces me to be more smooth with my inputs. Even though I have had quite a bit of experience riding litre class bikes, this thing puts a big grin on my face every time I ride it. Anyhoo, looking forward to learning and contributing here.

Eurocycles of Tampa is having a track day at Jennings this coming Monday. I called about it and they said they allow everyone on the track at once to maximize track time. So I decided not to go. Just a FYI thing if you want to get your gsx on the track.

I would love to get it out on the track, but my work schedule conflicts with this Monday. I also need to pick up some gear, but I am planning on doing some track time before the mid 90's get here. Thanks for the info.

Welcome from southwest Florida!

Cool! Thx As you can see I live in New Port Richey. I commute to Clearwater / Largo 28-29 miles.

I head to work at 5am Sat and Sundays, and I love how peaceful and quiet it is at those times. I can tell you I have been Very tempted to ride right past work and keep on going.

This is a decision I have to make daily!
This bike is just so content as whatever speed you're doing, and the exhaust note helps!
