haha, the only thing I have that many of are iron maiden tshirts. I do have a suzuki backpack even though I've never personally owned  Suzuki. I like them, but the bag was a present for christmas in 2003 when I thought I was going to buy an sv650. Ended up buying that triumph, and now every time I buy a new bike I just rip off the current patch and sew on a new one. I'm already due for a swap but haven't found a new patch I like. Ooh, I also used a suzuki tank bag on my buell too haha.

TT, you better come out and play on the 15th now!  I was just killing time watching Nicko McBrain drumming videos.  He rocked out on Voodoo Child and The Trooper!

Picked this up at Bike Week yesterday.



I have two Suzuki jackets, a pair of Suzuki gloves, a pair of Suzuki riding pants, a Suzuki T-shirt, and two keychains.

No thanks.   If I'm ON my Suzuki, people can tell that I like my Suzuki. 

To me, this is just like the aformentioned Harley riders.  Trying WAY too hard.

I occasionally wear some motorcycle tee-shirts when I'm not riding, but never when I am.

To each their own though.  If it makes you happy, good on ya.



If you can't be a good example, at least try to be a horrible reminder.

I don't have brand pride, but I certainly have best-product-at-a-given-price pride.  I'm proud of my $500 '98 GS500!

You'd be suprised how many people have called Flick a Ninja!

Right after I put the fairings back on, some guy asked me if it was a 750 or a 1k...

I said it was a 500...He gave me a perplexed look and kept on walking.

I love it, but your bike is slower than your clothes, like the rest of ours.  :thumb:

the people flying the flags are the same. suzuki, harley, yamaha, ducati whatever its one word. pride. some display it, some do not. whichever its all good. none are deserving of the criticism they can and DO get.

The world has changed a lot in my short life.  They used to give-out t-shirts, hats, frisbees, and such to get the public to advertise for them.  Now they put logos on everything and if it has a logo they charge extra.  I put it in the same category with bottled water, half the population being supported by the government, commercials on cable TV, and seat licenses, things I never thought I'd see and now that they're around I still can't believe it.

At least they still make air-cooled motorcycles... for now!  I don't know what I'll do when I can no longer get a nice, simple, air-cooled motorcycle to love.  I honestly don't know what I'll do.  Don't change the world much more until I step-off, please?  It's getting to where I no longer recognize it.
