Popular Post Gixxus Christ! Posted April 30, 2018 Popular Post Report Share Posted April 30, 2018 Actually my first new vehicle ever. 2018 Suzuki gsxs1000f in black and blue. First order of business will be a fender delete kit to get rid of the ugly hang-down. Was gonna put a yosh slip-on on it but from everything I've read it wont sound any different because all the muffling action goes on inside the cat/exhaust chamber, plus the stock can looks fine. I'm pretty stoked to have not only something brand new and shiny and unmolested, but also to have such a fine piece of street machinery. Gonna be a challenge to keep it under 5k for the break in period. Really looking forward to getting it on the track this July. Also, I NEED to sell the bandit. Now. Yesterday. Running out of room in the garage. Also could use $2500 right about now. Many pics to follow once I get it home. 1 2 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been seeing a large price variation among brands for these. Have a particular brand of each you recommend? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blue72beetle Posted May 1, 2018 Report Share Posted May 1, 2018 Interested to see if you have any snatchy throttle issues. The new ones are supposed to be a lot better. I had my ECU flashed and now my throttle is so smooth I'm 110% in love with this bike. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't be as bad as my old tl1000 was, and I got pretty smooth with that one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Butters Posted May 1, 2018 Report Share Posted May 1, 2018 Congrats! Fucking love the bike you're picking up. One of my favorite bikes actually. I bought my Honda new, my first new vehicle too... I liked it so much that we've bought two new cars since... Don't even care that I'm over paying, it's nice to own something new... I have much more pride. That's why my Honda is still in the garage even though it's made me miss work enough times it shouldn't be lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have a particular brand of each you recommend? I have a Graves and a Yosi FE on my bikes. Both have license plate LED light and use the stock turn signals, I like the stock turn signals because they are larger than most after market turn signals. I prefer to be as visible as possible.

max power Posted May 1, 2018 Report Share Posted May 1, 2018 I have no idea what the rear end of that looks like, but for my FZ, I bought a $10 license plate bracket/turn signal bracket, removed the shovel and bolted it where the shovel bolts were. Looks great. EBay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly they don't have any products to market for this bike yet. I may just spring for the full t rex protection kit....$300 sounds a lot better than replacing hard parts.
