It isn't only Suzuki not offering anything that entices me. The new stuff I see looks nice, but my response is primarily HO HUM.

Returning Visitors
If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.
If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Me. When they start making bikes like this again:
I'll think about buying one. Not that I could afford one anyway, but it's the principle.

Went to a Suzuki/Moto Guzzi shop in Germany the other day, all kinds of interesting mid sized models are sold here, including modern versions of the old standard UJM type. I would take a look if we had any of those in the US.
The stuff they are selling us now, meh.

FYI, per Suzuki that color is ACADEMY Gray.
Same as the bike I had.

Not sure how I missed this thread earlier, but, my 0.02USD:
Financing is for poor consumerist suckas! The only way I'd buy a brand-new vehicle was if I were so rich that I kept running out of ideas for how to waste all of my ill-gotten gains. As long as I'm not yet a millionaire, I'll stick with buying used and let someone else work hard for all that depreciation and interest!
The ones that really crack me up the most are those who buy a bike at $1k above MSRP (why?!), get financing for it, ride it for six months, then try to unload a used bike on craigslist for $500 above MSRP. Because, hey, they "need the money" and they're "just trying to sell it for what they owe on it." Because somehow it's news to them that riding a new bike off the lot dropped the value by 25%, not 5%.
