I used to have a Suzuki Bandit 600, kind of a smaller sister than the GSX 1400 you showed. The Bandit 600 was a lovely bike for short trips. I have always have the itch of driving the bigger versions but I moved on to "more practical" and I now own a Honda Paneuropean 1300. I'm looking forward for a better weather to use it more often. The V4 engine feels nice, the posture is all right and everything I can say will fall short of what the bike really is. It's a recent purchase so I'm still getting to know it but I'm expecting great things out of it.
@michelod.i.y.5202 I did a while ago while researching on the bike to decide whether I'd buy the bike or not. It's how I found your channel in the first place and I subscribed because I liked it.
I agree, a nice decent size shed and a few quid, we would all have great collections. Not sure if you have seen a channel called Delboys Garage, mainly deals with servicing, tips n tricks, advice and mods. Couple of great bikes the XJR & GSX. kind Regards
Both great bikes Michelo! I do love my GSX1250FA, it’s a completely different bike compared to my CB650R, my GSX is much more comfortable for the longer rides and the torque in it is unreal. I’m surprised I still have my license lol. Hope you’re well buddy!
@@BMCMOTOUK thanks, enjoyed riding them and there available for me to use when ever. Often look at quite new bikes but this definitely makes me think twice. All good in Wales, hope you're keeping well too.
@@michelod.i.y.5202 cheers Michelo, new bikes aren’t the be all and end all. My GSX1250FA is 14 years old and certainly doesn’t feel like that when riding it. The half digital half analog dash is really the only thing that makes it look old lol.
@@michelod.i.y.5202 thanks Michelo, it’s not too bad to work on I guess, it is a pain in the bum having to take the fairings off lol. The bikes will be coming off the road as soon as the salt appears in the roads
I personally own a 2006 gsx1400 and 2 x xjr1300 and totally agree for outright power the gsx1400 wins but l find both my xjr1300s handle better and just feel that bit more smoother
Lovely video

@5eurosenelsuelo many thanks. I appreciate your support. Good luck with the ST 1300 😊
Lovely! Next time you go to West Wales, plse do video tape a little bit of the city of Cardigan & Tresaith beach. I once took a pic there in 1988.
@@kingslj thanks, will do, lovely part of the world there😊
