here are a few of my toys
I just moved back to Fort erie in the fall and had way too much stuff to move so I sold several bikes including my 76 CB750, 78 Yz400, 80 RM 125, and my CM200, but I still have several toys left.

My 98 Suzuki GSXF/GSXR 750. This aint your average katana !

fuschia is the actual color, some call it pink, some call it purple... chicks dig it !

then again some call the bike purple, some call it burgandy... Maroon is the actual color of the bike
lets put it this way... you bike had better be fast and hold its own if your going to put fuschia lights on it.

The Katana/GSXF is normally heavy and underpowered compared to a supersport GSXR. However they share the same engine as the 88-92 GSXR with different tuning for touring. The bike has a very long list of modification to make it, lighter hadle well and run with the big boys.

haha, the day i ever own a suzuki, let alone put a suzuki motor into a yamaha i give permisiion to everyone to shoot me. Forgive me but i once owned a suzuki ts50 and that thing more tempremental than a woman! haha, they are still good bikes tho, i just have my brand of choice and i stick to it :)
 
As a mechanic I work on everything from Harleys to Chinese machines.
I own and have owned dozens of brands... everything from ATK to Yamaha
I originally had all my training from Yamaha, then went to Arctic Cat before working for myself.
I personally prefer Honda reliability. But Suzuki is now backed by Kawasaki after they merged years ago and are just as good as any company.

The 1 st gen TS had a loose fit right side crank/bushing seal. a bit of water and or grit in the oil and its done. The upgraded parts from the 2nd gen fixed the issues.

People complain all the time about the chinese quality on most bikes. Mine is on its 3rd year problem free. I lot has to do with how well they are maintained
