Ok the tail section, rear wheel, stainless exhaust, 5 spoke rims.... and we get what? The left over result of a GSXR/SV/Moped bang-fest?

GAH! I hate it when lower CC bikes have better parts than mine! Lol.

It's got upside down forks! And the tail section is pretty good looking, stainless exhaust too, why can't the US get that? :dunno_black:

Never officialy sold here, only grey imports. There are a few about but most have been thrashed to death and you have to look hard for a good one. OEM spares are impossible to find but they use the same engine as a DR350 , the breakers are full of them. If you are hell bent on one do some leg-work or speak to a dealer who specialises in grey imports........ Some trivia.....The bike is named after a bend on the TT course called The Gooseneck, often shotened to simply......"Goose"

"Goose" in all its glory....
