Nice. I'm in the market for a new truck myself. Hopefully white, if they can acquire one.

It does have a hitch and I have two hitch haul so it’s a possibility to drag one around but I have vehicles that are better suited for recovery. |

That,s a nice looking truck nice to see you treating yourself,  as a delivery driver I can use the sentence " I,ve been banging on your back door" without fear of prosecution Geoff |

Sold the Suzuki and bought back a Honda. That gsx1100f is such a big and heavy bike, really a handfull. The honda on the other hand compared to the Suzuki feels like a kids toy. It's really small and narrow, light and nimble. It's total dog though, 650cc v-twin with only 40 rwhp or so. Doesn't matter, it's a fun little bike which is easy to work on and parts are super cheap. It needs a good wash, some cosmetic attention and basic maintenance.  |

We didn't get the hawk here. Though a lot of Honda bros came here as grey imports.
Very reliable bikes, with loads used by dispatch riders covering big miles.
I know what you mean about the GSX. It was from a time where the engine performance was years ahead of the chassis development.
Makes for some interesting handling.

It needs a good wash, some cosmetic attention and basic maintenance. I had one, a 1990, red as well. It was one of the bikes I did some club level road racing with. A bit short on power for sure. Unfortunately it was put in the same class as those Yamaha FZR400RRRRRR? 4 cylinders, fast as hell. In one race I got lapped by them in I think lap 10. I think I would have finished something like 3rd if not for them. The US had a Two Brothers Racing that was into them and selling race kits, pretty spendy. I was in contact with them to set mine up, but my work situation changed and my racing time got reduced instead. I remember that the chain tension is unusually touchy. The wrench extension in the tool kit has gauge hash marks that need to be followed. |

Bit the bullet and went big. 2008 Moto Guzzi Norge 1200 2v Abs, fuel injected, 6 speed with panniers Soooo different from scooting around. So much to think about that’s NOT an automatic thing after three years of scootin. It’ll take me awhile to get steady. I can ride it around, I’ve done 1st/2nd/3rd and “gingerly” slipped the clutch uphill into my garage. It’s gonna take awhile to get “up to speed.”     |
