I like the can. That's about a $500 can isn't it?

I think flush mounted turn signal (front and rear) are on my next hit.

Question: What, specifically, do you use the rear handle extensions for? There are those two (one on each side) projections that look like tie downs, but not sure how to use them. My old Kat, they had tie downs underneath the seat.

I was told by the dealer stock exhaust cost $900 I can buy two nice aftermarket cans with that $$$$

those two little nibs are for you to hook the bungee cords from there to the other side's passenger foot peg

The pins are traditionally a hard-mount point for either hard luggage or top-boxes. I'm not sure why they include them on the US models, as they don't offer Suzuki-made hard luggage for it (and when they do offer hard luggage, it's typically 3rd-party luggage like Givi's rebadged under their name). They can be used for bungee cords or netting as well...

Try this:

and punch in GSXF650 in the box marked "Modelle", then hit enter...

Thanks Jason - I tried it out and it appears that it should work.

I would assume they made the pins as OEM equipment for all bikes to cater to the worldwide market?

I would guess so, but I have not been able to find a market that offers them

RonAyers has it for $584.23. Sounds like the stealerships are in full force.
