      Funny...when I grew up it was considered wrong to ask a parent to co-sign a loan for a car/motorcycle....that you would ask a relative or family friend...the idea being that you would feel more responsabile and indebted where as if it was a parent..you might not feel the same way.

      When I was 7 years old my dad co-signed a loan for a new motorcycle for my cousin Danny who was ten years older than me....my day told Danny, "when it comes time all I as is that you return the favour to Trevor if he needs a loan for his first vehicle"....
      So when I was 17 my cousin co-signed a $4,000 loan for me to buy this bike brand new.

        What a beautiful bike! I love it!!!

        You guys are lucky getting co-signs. I never had such luck when I was younger.

            I think your new scoot is a great looking bike

            This morning on my news feed I stumbled across this Motorcycle.com story. As I start reading it I see the pic of your bike.... Hey that looks familiar..

            Well, this is too easy.The best time to buy a motorcycle is after your ship comes in, ie., when you become wealthy.As one of our favorite bucks-up bike fanatic/collectors said when asked what’s the best time to buy: “I never gave it any thought.” When you don’t have to think about it is always a good time to buy a new motorcycle.

                    I got a late Christmas present..for myself lol.
                    Full Hindle exhaust, K&N Filter, Power Commander V, Dyno Quick shifter, Heated grips and I have sent the seat out to get redone...

                    Can't wait to be able to start riding regularly again.

                      K5 will always thrive!

                      Whenever suzuki goes back to the drawing board and makes a new frame that will surely be a treat. But will they?

                        Installed the full Hindle exhaust. The stock exhaust is HEAVY....probably shed 20lbs...It may be too loud...lol

                        And I had the entire bike ceramic coated....looks great and should stay that way too.

                          The ENTIRE BIKE CERAMIC COATED? How is that done?
                          1982 GS1100E V&H "SS" exhaust, APE pods, 1150 oil cooler, 140 speedo, 99.3 rear wheel HP, black engine, '83 red

                          2016 XL883L sigpic Two-tone blue and white. Almost 42 hp! Status: destroyed, now owned by the insurance company. The hole in my memory starts an hour before the accident and ends 24 hours after.
