I bought my GSX14 new out of the crate in 2001 and still have it now. I bought the grey one because I knew I wasn't going to keep it standard and the blue/white (shell suits) were 2 a penny. I still love it and ride it regularly and i've changed nearly everything on it paint, brakes and lines, metmachex swing arm engine mods TTS Cams and on. It's a keeper I'll be buried on it lol.

Nice vid, nice bike mate. Paid 5K for mine 4 years ago (with 17 thou on the clock, now at 27) like to think i would get most of that back IF i ever sold it, but not planning on it. Its just too good a bike and so much fun to ride.

[@Budget-Cars-And-Bikes]

They tend to go between £4k and £5k now, more for low mileage mint examples of course, but I was offered a near mint model today, 2003 lots of extras, £3.5! so if you look...... bargains are out there, and it's a hell of a bike at £3.5 😀

Love your honesty stands for a lot now days keep doing the videos 👍

[@Budget-Cars-And-Bikes]

@@markstaley5922 thanks a lot Mark 😉

Ive had my black one 14 years. Still love it. However my F1 or fault indicator light is on. Did a diagnostic and it is the secondary butterfly motor that needs a bit of solder on it. Apparently a common fault. Nice video.

[@Budget-Cars-And-Bikes]

Thanks Steve, hope you get yours sorted soon 😁

Those mirrors are very rectangular.
You need to post a video "I taught my 4 months old puppy to ride my GSX1400 motorcycle." You would get 5M views by lunchtime on the day of release.

[@Budget-Cars-And-Bikes]

Yes I need more "clickbait" titles I guess 🤣

[@georgefinlayson8448]

Ive had mine for 16 years , cant find anytime that come near it for vomfort speed plus nearly 200 miles out of one tank . Race it through the fears or just stick it in 6th at 1500 revs & open itup & it just pulls & pulls . Its a keeper.

[@Budget-Cars-And-Bikes]

Agree with all that George 😁

Really no need to pay for the extra high end fuel - most bikes and certainly Japanese stuff is actually designed to run on 87 octane (91RON) fuel with a min of 10% ethanol
There isn't a UK only map where 98RON is going to give you oodles of extra power and extend the life of the bike by 50 years; it really is pointless
Putting anything else in is simply a waste of your money - you're not protecting anything
However, if it makes you happy then I can't imagine Shell shareholders will complain

[@Budget-Cars-And-Bikes]

I do it as I've seen stories of fuel line degregation using E10 - The general feeling is it's fine for bikes 2011+ but older bikes can suffer. Esspecially if left in the systen for any period of time, Winter Months etc etc 😉

[@allthatglitterz4564]

Awesome Bike....Great video 😁

[@Budget-Cars-And-Bikes]

Thanks 😁

[@mrnumbskull2048]

Further to your comparison of the number of views for different videos - I imagine more people watch some love island or dancing nonsense than would watch a moon landing if it broadcast now. It's not you, it's the state of humans now. I'd rather watch your videos 😉

[@Budget-Cars-And-Bikes]

Thanks a lot 😁
