    Glad you're enjoying it.
    Yes they are buzzy. I found that synching the carbs has helped quite a bit on mine, but hasn't fully stopped it. Suzuki had two different bar end weights over the years, I'm assuming to address the buzz, but I never experimented. Aftermarket bars on mine.

    When you do the valves be VERY careful tightening the vav cover bolts. They strip really easy.

    It's a different feel than all my other GS's, but I like it. I was surprised by the foot peg position being a lot higher than my 1100, but it's not that much different than the position of the GSX1100G. The hand position is a lot like my FJ1100, but that has lower foot peg position. That bike fits me like a glove. It has a weird whistle sound to it that my other GS's don't have and there is quite a bit of vibration through the handle bars that I fell through different RPM ranges. I'm going to go through the valves and possibly pull the carbs soon and give them a through cleaning in my ultrasonic cleaner, but I've been having fun riding it. Hopefully clearing out the carbs and setting the valve clearances will remove that. I also found out it doesn't have the proper clear on the tank and really have to be careful filling it. When I get the time I may color sand it lightly and put a couple of coats of 2K on it before it really gets screwed up.

    Boy, that mobile home sure does stick out! Didn't know they made double decker ones. Come to think of it I may have seen the owner of that home passing through Albuquerque.

    Here they are at Home Depot a couple of months ago.

    I got two tag photos on of a hospital here in Central Fl and a vintage mobile home that sticks out among the normal ones.


    My pic is from the right of the first stock photo and from the left of the second stock photo.


    Next tag is an unusual sculpture using scrap.

    Next tag is a house or building that just doesn't fit in/ bizarre architecture.

    No doubt it has been done before but i hope not recently.
    This one happens to be on the water but anything will do. Splash pads, Lazy River, water slides.
    Just don't look creepy hanging around the park getting the pic.
    Here's the Hotel Cascada with it's water slide coming out the side of the building.

    I hope you can get it, because FL isn't known for it's dams and the one that I know if is a wee little thing.

    If that's the toughest decision you're faced with this weekend, you're in pretty good shape. LoL
