New Bike

[Kitten Tooth]

I took a trip to Sioux Falls the other day on my GS300L.
It made me realize that i needed a bigger bike. So, I'm going to buy
a 1982 Kawasaki CSR1000. I thought that the only way to do this was
to sell my other bike. but, i felt that i was betraying myself somehow by selling the other bike. so i decided to get a job to buy the CSR1000 and keep the other bike because i love it so much. I'm not saying goodbye GSResources. you're Technical info forum really helped me with general upkeep on my bike. Thanks.

good for you, i have 3 bikes in my herd of suzukis and it would be a sad day if i had to sell them off.kawis are kinda a suzuki cousin alot of the kawi bikes are so similar to suzuki you have to wonder if there isnt some thing going on between them .
the more bikes you have the happier you are. .........toolman

There is something going on between them recently. They have been re-badging each others bikes for a few years now. The drz400 was re-badged as a klx400 for a couple years. They have a few dirt and atv models that they share. Artic Cat was using Suzuki engines in their atv models until recently also.

artic cat has been using suzuki 2stroke engins in there snow machines since 1975. that was the year that suzuki bought ownership in artic cat. i think it was 30% .before that it was kawi engines. i also own a suzuki 300 king quad ,what a tank that machine is tough and very capable off road.there is a artic cat in the herd as well .
,my first bike was a suzuki 250 hustler i wish i never sold that one .
never sell your toys ....... toolman
