BanditMike 0 Posted June 11, 2012 Nice bikes Suzuki looks interesting Must admit while I like the look of some of the Ducati, never felt the urge to buy one. Still a nice looker though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tony nitrous 0 Posted June 11, 2012 Never been a Duck fan.Always seemed overpriced and fragile to me.Last one I took out (a demo model) I brokeand limped it back with bent chain adjustersand a rear wheel out of line... That oil-cooled GSX streetfighter is a realmix of parts but looks a lot of fun... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
