Nice! The bike looks almost brand new. Are those Suzuki decals or did you find good reproductions?

Hello,
New member from the UK with a 2000 model.
I've added a few cosmetic mods whilst the bike is off the road for winter.
New Puig screen, Skidmarx belly pan / chin spoiler - with a 2002 tank stripe to blend in with the black and grey colour scheme.
The obligatory fender chop and some mini indicators for a cleaner look. I put the Delkevic exhaust on last summer. Hope you likey. 😀

Look Nice.

Only  problem is the Puig screen, screen itself looks great but the Man Puig is a piece of work 😉

Nice, very Smart!

Took mine out for a grocery shop, going via a nice ride up the jura mountains behind my house 😉. We had no winter this year.

Bikes transformed since I changed the intake boot ORings. Was stuttering a little but under hard acceleration around 5k revs, and was not smooth going open/closed  or closed/open throttle.

Rock steady now.

Wasn't great getting into neutral on the last ride. Don't remember when last I adjusted the clutch so did a proper three-pointer adjustment. Now waiting for the bizarre snow to stop so summer can restart...

Fantastic early morning ride through the jura, I love my G's in the twisties, but I need more comfy cold weather trousers.
