  • New GSX1100F owner

    Hi
    New to this forum so ill just briefly say I have just bought my second GSX1100 after 20 years away from them.
    Picked the bike up yesterday from Reading (UK) and rode it home some 60 miles. after finding it had been sold with no brakes and empty forks (no oil)!

    All in all it made for an interesting ride from the owner to the nearest Halfords to blead the brakes and un-sieze the left front caliper.
    Any way its on the drive today having had a hasty service and a clean up.
    For the arse ache ride home and the extra cost of getting to a safe state I still have to say the Power Screen GSX has to be the best looking bike Suzuki have made.

    Any way hello to one and all.

    all the best Kevin

            Hi
            Its a Laser, not sure but it feels and looks like Stainless steel. Certainly not chrome.
            Not a bad sound from it just loud enough to be heard but still legal.

                        Welcome. That's a nice looking bike. Did it come with the bags to go on those racks?

                          Hello Wild bill,
                          No sadly the topbox and paniers were not with the bike. Its a Givi rack so finding a new set shouldnt be a prolem if I have a hunt on Ebay.
                          Mind you im half of the mind to take the rack off and put the stock indicators back on.
